|

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
KOI8-R is the character set of choice for encoding Russian texts for
|
||||
many UNIX-like operation systems.
|
||||
KOI8-R is a successor for KOI-8, a
|
||||
de-facto standard for Internet Mail, News, WWW, and other interactive
|
||||
services at least all over the ex-SU territory.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
KOI8-R is defined by RFC\ 1489 (Registration of a Cyrillic Character
|
||||
Set).
|
||||
.SH NOTES
|
||||
KOI8-R was designed for mixed Russian/English texts and covers
|
||||
only Russian Cyrillic characters,
|
||||
so if you're looking for Cyrillic characters for Ukrainian,
|
||||
Byelorussian, and so on,
|
||||
try ISO-IR-111, or KOI8-U
|
||||
(Ukrainian Character Set), or KOI8-C (for ancient Russian texts)
|
||||
instead, which are identical to KOI8-R in the Russian Cyrillic letters
|
||||
area.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
A more complete set of Cyrillic characters is also defined by the
|
||||
ISO-8859-5 character set.
|
||||
RFC\ 1489 defines an 8-bit character set, KOI8-R.
|
||||
KOI8-R encodes the
|
||||
characters used in Russian.

||||
