This is probably good but as i18n guy I better warn
you about using char *. Make sure you only use these
functions for *7-bit* ASCII or when you are at least
100% positive that the place you are sending your
string to is expecting the same encoding that your
char * is pointing to. Otherwise this will be
horrible to maintain. It would be very much
appreciated if somebody could add a comment to this
effect to the source for these functions (sorry I
can't do it myself in this internet cafe).
Thanks for your understanding. Sorry to nitpick.
Andrew Dunbar.
