Hi Ken,

i've lately been working on making the result XML as exact a copy of the
input as possible (minus the dynamic bits of course), mostly however with
respect to DTD declarations.
It would be great if the interpretor picked up the encoding type of the
program and used that for the output, problem is i don't know how to get
to that information using DOM, or SAX. What i don't want to do is to start
writing a parser to get the information out.
I guess I could create an InputStream, and get the encoding from that...
I'll look at getting this into the next release, due... soon!
An alternative would be to specify to the interpreter which char encoding
to use for the output, not sure which is preferrable. Maybe both.

oh, i almost forgot myself - Ken, could you pls add this to Bugzilla -
http:///bugz.pingdynasty.com
Let me know if you don't know how.

cheers,
