25 ;; UTF-7 - A Mail-Safe Transformation Format of Unicode - RFC 2152
26 ;; This is a transformation format of Unicode that contains only 7-bit
27 ;; ASCII octets and is intended to be readable by humans in the limiting
28 ;; case that the document consists of characters from the US-ASCII
30 ;; In short, runs of characters outside US-ASCII are encoded as base64
32 ;; A variation of UTF-7 is specified in IMAP 4rev1 (RFC 2060) as the way
33 ;; to represent characters outside US-ASCII in mailbox names in IMAP.
34 ;; This library supports both variants, but the IMAP variation was the
36 ;; The routines convert UTF-7 -> UTF-16 (16 bit encoding of Unicode)
37 ;; -> current character set, and vice versa.
38 ;; However, until Emacs supports Unicode, the only Emacs character set
39 ;; supported here is ISO-8859.1, which can trivially be converted to/from
41 ;; When decoding results in a character outside the Emacs character set,
42 ;; an error is thrown. It is up to the application to recover.
44 ;; UTF-7 should be done by providing a coding system. Mule-UCS does
45 ;; already, but I don't know if it does the IMAP version and it's not
46 ;; clear whether that should really be a coding system. The UTF-16
47 ;; part of the conversion can be done with coding systems available
48 ;; with Mule-UCS or some versions of Emacs. Unfortunately these were
49 ;; done wrongly (regarding handling of byte-order marks and how the
50 ;; variants were named), so we don't have a consistent name for the
51 ;; necessary coding system. The code below doesn't seem to DTRT
54 ;; (utf7-encode "a+£")
57 ;; $ echo "a+£"|iconv -f iso-8859-1 -t utf-7
62 ;; Modified 5 May 2004 by Yuuichi Teranishi so that it can run with APEL/FLIM
63 ;; instead of mm-util in Gnus.
65 ;; * Use find-coding-system instead of mm-coding-system-p.
66 ;; * Use mel.el instead of base64.el.
67 ;; * Don't use mm-with-unibyte-current-buffer etc.
68 ;; * Do nothing if utf-16 coding system is not found.
70 ;; Modified 31 Aug 2004 by Yuuichi Teranishi so that it can avoid the bug of
71 ;; Emacs 21.3 release version.
