Thanks Sven. I'll look into this soon and will provide feedback. Norbert

So now you can do
ZnByteEncoder newFromUrl: 'http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/PC/CP437.TXT'.
But you better cache that instance somewhere.

Is there any way to read a codepage 437 encoded file with pharo?
thanks,
Norbert This could be done with ZnByteEncoder, but that encoding is not provided by default. So you need to generate a new mapping method, luckily this can be done automagically:
ZnByteEncoder generateByteToUnicodeSpec: 'http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/PC/CP437.TXT'.
Put it on the class side and plug it in #mappingToIdentifiers and #initialize again. I guess you maybe could provide a one-shot instance, but I have never done that and adding it as known encoding will be easier at first.
I am sure you will figure it out ;-)
Let me know how it goes, maybe it would be a good idea to allow one-shot encoder instances based just on a spec from unicode.org
