All Russian WEB sites have to provide different encodings of Russian texts. Four main encodings are CP1251 for Windows, KOI8 for UNIX, MAC for Macintosh and transliteration for users accepting only English texts. You may install these scripts on your servers for your own use for free. Drop me a line if you deploy these scripts on your site.
Scripts require the above two package sets.
Archive contains tree of subdirectories with root named cgi-bin. On UNIX unpack with tar and unzip, on Windows use WinZip. If you use another directory for scripts, just rename it. PL make make test make install This will install the package into your system. Note that ActiveState's perl does not supports MakeMaker.
