Right - that's what I'm looking for - the Greek Code Page that matches
the character set used in web pages, newsgroups and e-mail from Greece.
(I don't think it matters but I use Lynx, Tin and SunMail on GNU BASH Unix
with this Dorsai shell account.)
Is it buried somewhere in this "GAUSS.CPI"?
If not, where do I find it?
(The comment on NT came because I e-mailed the microsoft.com author of
one of the translation tables on unicode.org and she replied that I
can find the code page on the disks that come with NT 4.0.)
Thanks.
