change the default encoding

["abdelkader belahcene" <abelahcene@gmail.com>]

Hi,
I want to change the default encoding,

I want to use cp1256, instead of the default utf8.

The reason, I run a windows application ( developped in delphi, via wine ) which uses cp1256 (I suppose that), the display of french characters namely é à ç ..., is not correct. So I think by changing the encoding I'll fix the problem.

thanks for help
bela


best regards
