Subject: Change Charset, a BBEdit external

Hello!

This is my first posting of Macintosh software. I hope everything that is
required is here...

Change Charset is an BBEdit external which allows one to convert characters
from/to the Macintosh charset to/from ISO-Latin-1 and to/from 7-bit
Scandinavian (which is still largely used in Scandinavian unix machines!).
This probably makes Change Charset interesting for Europeans only. Still,
it never hurts to remind the English-speaking ASCII-world that there are
languages which DO need more than 7-bit characters ;-)

The conversion can be done in place, to a new window or the converted text
can be copied to the clipboard. If there's a selection, Change Charset
will act on the selection, otherwise it will process the whole window.

This program can be freely copied for non-commercial purposes.

I can be reached by email at Sami.Tikka@hut.fi
