If you're using licq, fetch licq from CVS -- it contains my encodings
patch, which'll allow you to choose distinct encodings for every user
you communicate with.

No. So either:

1. Switch to iso8859-i "charset" (hardcore it in kdeglobals)

2. Configure your editor to open the files in a given encoding:

In Kedit, there's a little Encoding button in the File Open dialog
(this will open this single file in the chosen encoding).
In Kate, find Encodings somewhere in the Configuration dialog.

3. Convert your text files via:

iconv -f iso8859-8 -t utf-8 < original.txt > unicode.txt
