character-encoding

I've just been handed a pile of Java source that, I suspect, is in ISO-8859-8. Eclipse's menu of charsets, here on my Mac, does not include that. Or any of a wide variety of other encodings supported by the JDK.

Is there a recipe for expanding the list of encodings that show up in the menu?
