Package: locales
Version: 2.1.3-8
Severity: wishlist
I'd like to use iconv_open/iconv/iconv_close to perform the same operation available
with mbstowcs/wcstombs (the wchar_t should be useful with iswalpha etc), but iconv_open
takes no codeset equivalent to wchar_t. According to the docs, you could specify UCS4
for glibc, but UCS4 is explicitly big-endian, which doesn't do too much good on little-endian
machines, and flipping the endianness isn't always a viable solution. Perhaps someone could at
least add UCS4BIG and UCS4LITTLE or something like that to the available encodings?
This is sort of important to me...
