Subject: improving rfc2047 encoder
Date: Mon, 17 May 2004 09:34:13 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <b9y3c5zq4ca.fsf@jpl.org> (raw)

Hi,

I'm now working on improving the rfc2047 encoder in order to
fix a bug that it fails on Q encoding for the iso-2022-*
charsets (the default encoding is B for iso-2022-*, though).

Furthermore, the encoder divides a long Japanese text
meaninglessly when encoding.  Although it's not a bug, it annoys
me and I'm also trying to improve it.  Here's an example:

Subject: Re: =?iso-2022-jp?B?GyRCPHc4Qkw1PHcbKEI=?=
 =?iso-2022-jp?B?GyRCOEJMNTheOWUkThsoQg==?=
 =?iso-2022-jp?B?GyRCJDkkakBaJGwbKEI=?=

This header can be encoded as follows.  It still honors the
76-column rule which is described in the RFC2047 section 2.

Subject: Re: =?iso-2022-jp?B?GyRCPHc4Qkw1PHc4Qkw1OF45ZSROJDkkakBaJGwbKEI=?=

The temporary version is here:

ftp://ftp.jpl.org/pub/tmp/rfc2047.el.gz

I wish I could install it in Gnus CVS within a couple of days.

Regards,
