I looked here: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/api/java/nio/charset/Charset.html but couldn't see where it said this is a required character set. Is it really required or just nice to have since the Sun implementation supports it? (Which might still be a good reason to add them to Mauve, but then I would like to label them explicitly as such.) Also you seem to test (in getBytes13) for the "historical names" for which I couldn't find a definition. Do you know where they are specified? InputStreamReader and OutputStreamWriter getEncoding() are supposed to return them but they don't document what they actually look like. Cheers, Mark
