REQ : encoding windows cp1252 => iso latin 1

[Gillou]

Hi,

This is an emergency ;-)

My customers make copy/paste from M$ word docs to forms translated to XML
(expecting ISO latin 1 charset).
My XML parser (pyexpat) does not accept cp1252 character, and I'm looking
for a function that can translate extra cp1252 characters to the closest ISO
latin 1 encoding.

Thanks in advance for any help.

(old Zope).
