 OK, points taken, I'm redoing the patch now.  Thanks a lot for
 the URL and RFC references!  (and for your patience in not dismissing
 this PR right away, but actually trying to help :)
 
 However, I've stumbled into some problems.  The windows-1251 document
 on IANA's ftp site points at http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/
 as the authoritative source for information about the windows-1251
 charset.  From that site, I found:
 
   http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/sbcs/1251.htm
 
 which lists the code -> Unicode mapping for the charset.
 
 However, RFC 1345 does not list the following three characters:
 
    85 = U+2026 : HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS
    88 = U+20AC : EURO SIGN
    95 = U+2022 : BULLET
 
 Is RFC 1345 obsoleted by some other, which includes these three codes?
 If not, can you tell me where I can find the names I should use for them?
 Many thanks again!
 
 
 G'luck,
 Peter
