Subject: Encoded Text importer/exporter

Hi. I've put a few days' work into the importer and exporter for
encoded plain text files as discussed here recently. It's just
about done but I wonder should I just post the patch here or would
anybody like to look it over and/or test it first?
I didn't get any response after I last posted about it so I've gone
ahead and implemented it as in Word 2000. You can now select
"Encoded Text" as another filetype in the save and open dialogs.
After the file dialog an Encoding dialog appears with a list of
encodings supported by the iconv on your machine. At present
encoded text has a new file suffix of .etxt because of bug 1474.
This feature included an amount of work to enumerate the encodings
supported by iconv. We probably need to look at moving this code
into the Encoding Manager.
So what's my best next move? (:
Andrew Dunbar.
