Hi Christos,


Mostly - it spoils the .ENCODING token though.

To work around that issue, please make sure the .ENCODING line matches
(that's because I don't oversee without further research what happens if
they are mismatched and if we need iconv in that case -- to check, look
at the .ENCODING line in the bogoutil -d output of each and every file).
You also should then strip it from all but one of the wordlists, as in:


cat wordlist.db.server1 | bogoutil -l wordlist.db.new

grep -v ^\\.ENCODING wordlist.db.server2 | bogoutil -l wordlist.db.new

grep -v ^\\.ENCODING wordlist-3.db | bogoutil -l wordlist.db.new


Note that bogoutil -l sort of cumulates the data, and .ENCODING would
need special treatment that it currently does not get.

See RELEASE.NOTES, section "[Major 0.95.0] Unicode in UTF-8", for
details on this token's purpose.


HTH,
Matthias
