Cyrillic and other charsets
===========================

   The following Cyrillic charsets are already available in `recode'
through RFC 1345 tables: `CP1251' with aliases `1251', ` ms-cyrl' and
`windows-1251'; `CSN_369103' with aliases `ISO-IR-139' and `KOI8_L2';
`ECMA-cyrillic' with aliases `ECMA-113', `ECMA-113:1986' and
`iso-ir-111', `IBM880' with aliases `880', `CP880' and
`EBCDIC-Cyrillic'; `INIS-cyrillic' with alias `iso-ir-51'; `ISO-8859-5'
with aliases `cyrillic', ` ISO-8859-5:1988' and `iso-ir-144'; `KOI-7';
`KOI-8' with alias `GOST_19768-74'; `KOI8-R'; `KOI8-RU' and finally
`KOI8-U'.

   There seems to remain some confusion in Roman charsets for Cyrillic
languages, and because a few users requested it repeatedly, `recode'
now offers special services in that area.  Consider these charsets as
experimental and debatable, as the extraneous tables describing them are
still a bit fuzzy or non-standard.  Hopefully, in the long run, these
charsets will be covered in Keld Simonsen's works to the satisfaction of
everybody, and this section will merely disappear.

`KEYBCS2'
     This charset is available under the name `KEYBCS2', with
     `Kamenicky' as an accepted alias.

`CORK'
     This charset is available under the name `CORK', with `T1' as an
     accepted alias.

`KOI-8_CS2'
     This charset is available under the name `KOI-8_CS2'.
