Subject: ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of GNU recode-3.5 uploaded
Reply-To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com

This is a port of GNU Recode 3.5 to MSDOS/DJGPP.

     GNU Recode is a libray for recoding files between a great amount of
     different character sets. GNU Recode also includes the `recode' program
     that is a handy front end to the library.
     Please *read* the info docs to become familiar with usage of this package.

     You can download the binaries,docs and sources from SimtelNET and mirrors as:
       ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/rcode35b.zip
       ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/rcode35d.zip
       ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/rcode35s.zip

     DJGPP specific changes:
     1) Changes needed for NLS support with DJGPP.
     2) Extensive changes in the docs. Added indexing for all
        command-line options and all supported charsets.
     3) Changes in the test suite to make it work on DOS/Windows with
        DJGPP tools.

     Thanks to Eli Zaretskii for contributing the patch for docs
     and test suite changes.

     All changes I have done against the original GNU distribution
     are documented in the diffs file stored in the CONTRIB subdir
     of the source package.

     This package has been compiled with the DJGPP port of the GNU gettext library so
     you can expect that the program talk to you in your mother tongue, if supported.
