public class WindowsHackReader
extends EncodingReader

Implements an encoding reader to convert the stupid windows "smart" quotes into ISO-8859-1 (Latin-1) characters.

The windows "smart" quotes actually do map into unicode characters. If that's what you want, use the window-1521 encoding instead. windows-hack converts to the closest latin-1 equivalent.

The three exceptions are the elipses '...', the trademark, and the per-mille characters. Those are translated into their unicode equivalents because there isn't a useful latin-1 equivalent.
