Hi Etienne,
Converting the text in the HHC and HHK to Windows 1252 would not be
possible, because the Turkish in the examples I am using contain a small
dotless i character.  That character appears in Windows 1254, but not in
Windows 1252.  What can I do with such characters in 1252?  I think that is
why Windows 1254 is required for Turkish.
