Unicode and ISO-8859-2 - callback to convert...

[durumdara]

Hi!

I port some Cheetah site to Mako.
C is uses ISO-8859-2 templates, and my datas - they are also
ISO-8859-2 encoded...

Now I use in my all view:

$(c.tounicode(param) |h}
$(c.tounicode(MailRecord['Main']) |h}
etc.

I wanna search for a solution where I can handle all of my inputs in
mako internally, and convert it to needed format...

For example:
def MyCallBack(Param):
return tounicode(Param)

RegisterCallBack(MyCallBack)

Do you know about same method to avoid this problem?

We have áíé, and other chars that are not handled by utf8, and if I
forget to write this input conversion, possible the site will
unavailable for users with a simple hungarian user input... :-(

Thanks for your help:

look into adding a default filter:
