           Summary: Registry: Missing MIME character set encoding
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.9
          Platform: PC-x86-64
        OS/Version: Windows Vista
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: winehq.5.tahtu at spamgourmet.com


The Windows API does not offer a way to figure out the code page of a know
character set name, used in MIME enviroment.

The MSDN suggest to use this hard coded table:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms776446(VS.85).aspx

But inside Windows there is a way to figure out the translation by using the
Registry. For example the code page of the "big5" character set can be taken by
the following Registry Key:

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Charset\Big5]
"Codepage"=dword:000003b6
"InternetEncoding"=dword:000003b6

Unfortunately this Keys are not present in the Wine Registry.


Since there is no Windows API call to figure out this I suggest to add the
related values into the Wine Registry.
