Thanks, very nice.

However, before I can commit them, you have to convert the files a bit:

I am not sure how this is done most easily from anything but
ISO-8859-1. You have to look at the unicode value of each character and
then print it as \uXXXX. If you write a tool to do it (could be using
unicode.c from mlmmj), we could distribute it with mlmmj. I am not sure
when I can find the time to do it, if you don't. So please write a nifty
tool :-)
