Steven,
Thanks for your reply.
Wasn't there something in the past few months about an incompatibility in
bulkmarcimport.pl with certain (?) parts of unicode?
I did search the archives. Could not find anything relevant.
Would it be possible for you to do a global search and replace for those 3
problem characters (with whatever tools you have on hand) and recode them into
MARC8? That might be a work-around for now.
From what I understand, MARC8 does not support Tamil.
Right now, the solution I have in mind (as a work around) is:
1. replace each of the 3 problem chars with a control char
2. mysqldump the koha database
3. replace the control char with the corresponding problem char
4. restore into mysql
Is there a better work around ?
Unless someone is already at it,
I would like to look at the incompatibility issue
for unicode in bulkmarcimport.
Would you know whats the problem ?
Any pointers would be useful.
Thanks,
hari.
