Is a greek unicode text now to be sent as unicode or as GSM alphabeth? is a text suitable for ISO8859-1? how about characters which exist in multiple unicode character tables? how to do pattern matching? It aint easy, lots of things to think of. -- Andreas Fink Fink-Consulting ------------------------------------------------------------------ Tel: +41-61-6932730 Fax: +41-61-6932729 Mobile: +41-79-2457333 Address: A.
