From: "José Lagoas" <jlagoas@lnec.pt> Second Question: The Portuguese Language uses some special characters like "ã". We have used bulkmarcimport for importing our database. This program changes "ão" to "ô", "ãe" to "ê " and "áu" to "ù". Have you any idea how to solve this problem?
Sounds like a character encoding problem. If bulkmarcimport is using UTF-8 at last, try running: iconv -f iso-8859-15 -t utf-8 -o outfile.marc infile.marc and then feed outfile.marc to bulkmarcimport. Hope that helps, -- MJ Ray - see/vidu http://mjr.towers.org.uk/email.html Somerset, England. Work/Laborejo: http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ IRC/Jabber/SIP: on request/peteble
