I tried to use it with ISO 8859-2 charset and it didn't work. I was considering the possiblility to make a patch to it, but the hazy status of recode was discouradging: no new release for quite a long time, declarations that recode will be reimplemented in other language and the C version is no longer supported... Perhaps one could rather write it from scratch, as a patch to (lib)iconv. Wdyt? Because of this, I think that one-time simple sed solution is much more appropriate in the case we are discussing.
