- NewsCoaster will hopefully soon be able to cope with different charsets.
- In the meantime, the scripts 'after_fetchPL.rexx' and
- 'before_sendPL.rexx' have been written by Grzegorz Kraszewski to allow
- use of Polish charset.
-
- These scripts give NewsCoaster support for ISO-8859-2 charset and are
- written for users from Poland. Script named "before_sendPL.rexx" scans
- 'outgoing' folder, reencodes text from AmigaPL (official Polish Amiga
- encoding) to ISO-8859-2, and changes 'Content-type' field in the message
- header. It should be run before posting news. The second script called
- "after_fetchPL.rexx" converts encoding from ISO-8859-2 to AmigaPL. It
- handles both 8bit and quoted-printable encoded messages. Due to weakness
- of NewsCoaster ARexx port, scripts have to be run "by hand" and can't be
- used in online mode. "after_fetchPL.rexx" currently supports only one
- newsgroup, it has to be written into the file directly.
