Hi Bernhard,

Thanks for your note. On David's prompting, I'm just looking into replacing 
iconv with QTextCodec...if it supports the code pages needed. Once I sort 
this out, then we'll know if iconv even needs to be in the code.

BTW: iconv *is* available on FreeBSD, in one of the packages 
("converters/something" from memory - someone posted this info recently), 
but David pointed out that iconv is not in glibc 2.0.

Watch this space...

Thanks, Shaheed
