How to encode the translations?

[Martin G. <gim...@gi...>]

Hi,

Those of you who follow the CVS checkins mailing-list will know, that
I've been playing around with the encodings used for the translations.

I've convinced Emacs to save the Hungarian translation using the UTF-8
(Unicode) character set. This seams to work well when we also send out
a HTTP header that tells the browser about the encoding.

But I would like to know if any of you know more about this? I'm so
fortunate that all the special characters I normally need are covered
by ISO-8859-1 (Latin-1), so I know that there's someone on the list
who knows more about this jungle than me :-)

We've tested the UTF-8 encoded Hungarian translation in Mozilla 0.9.9,
IE 6, and Opera 6. If you want to have a look yourself, then point
your favorite browser to this URL:
