From: "Rhys Jones" To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org X-Mailer: SquirrelMail (version 1.0pre2) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7BIT Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hello, Please forgive a semi-newbie post. About 18 months ago I patched fs/nls/ to include support for the Celtic character set, ISO8859-14. I notice that there are still gaps in nls, specifically in ISO8859 codepages 10 to 13. The missing codepages are for Nordic/Icelandic (ISO8859-10), Thai (ISO8859-11), and Baltic Rim (ISO8859-13) languages. I'm still trying to determine the status of ISO8859-12 at the moment. Two questions, really. The general one is whether anyone would find these codepages useful. If they would, I'm willing to provide the patches in due course. More specifically, can anyone tell me why ISO8859-10 (Icelandic etc.) is mentioned in Documentation/Configure.help whilst nls_iso8859-10.c is missing from the fs/nls directory? Any and all feedback appreciated.
