[Remind-Fans] Update re: Unicode and rem2html

[W. Robert J. Funnell, Prof.]

Oooweee! This new --utf8 is marvellous :-) Thank you!

I should have thought of using SPECIAL HTML since I'm already using it to insert URL's, but then --utf8 wouldn't have been born.

To get the new rem2html to work, I had to change #!perl to #!/usr/bin/perl. Maybe because I'm using a very old version of Debian Linux.

Thank you again, for everything.

- Robert

Subject: [Remind-Fans] Update re: Unicode and rem2html

Hi,

I've added a --utf8 command-line option to rem2html that makes it assume
UTF-8-encoded data on input and produce UTF-8-encoded data on output.
This flag also makes it write the <meta> tag indicating utf-8 character
encoding.

This should eliminate all the "Wide character..." warnings that it currently
produces.  You can try it out from git HEAD at https://git.skoll.ca/Skollsoft-Public/Remind

Regards,

Dianne.
