What Character Encoding Is This?
- by Canoehead
I need to clean up some file containing French text. Problem is that the files erroneously contain multiple encodings within the same file.
I think some sections are ISO8859-1 (Latin 1) but other parts have text encoded in single byte characters that look like 'extended' ASCII. In other words, it is UTF-7 encoding plus the following:
0x82 for é (e acute)
0x8a for è (e grave)
0x88 for ê (e circumflex)
0x85 for à (a grave)
0x87 for ç (c cedilla)
What encoding is this?
