I'm writing up what will probably end up as a mini-HOWTO on encoding
translators under Linux (recode, iconv, etc.) (which I'd be happy to
email anyone if they're interested in looking at it or making comments
on it). But, on topic . . .

In the README of a program called re (Russian Anywhere) I came across
this fragment:

       Here is the know codepages list and their abbreviatures:

           W - Windows 1251 "_" - _xxe
           D - Dos "%" - %hex
           K - KOI-8 "\\" - \'hex
           L - Latin G - Graph_win
           I - Iso "<" - <binhex>
           H - HEX + - +UTF7-
           S - ShiftKbrd C - C_MIC
           M - Mac Y - Y_c16
           A - AFF Z - Z_c32
           O - Odd(UTF8_1) F - F(UTF8_2)
           B - Base64 P - Pict
           E - Express N - N_Estl
           T - T-Html V - V_Vpp855
           U - User X - X_sp
           "-" - uue J - J_diff

Now, this is the only documentation this package has, besides the
source. I was wondering if anyone had ever heard of Odd and F UTF8
before?
