Hello,
This patch make xwinclip convert clipboard text encoding using libiconv,
so perhaps you can copy and paste non-ASCII characters on Win9x.
But I don't have Win9X, I haven't tested it yet.
I could copy and paste Unicode text on NT/2000/XP, but CJK characters
sometimes become other CJK characters because of Han Unification.
This patch fix this problem.
For example, I use following command line option on Windows XP.
LANG=ja_JP.eucJP
XWin -clipboard -nounicodeclipboard -winencoding SHIFT_JIS -xencoding EUC-JP
Test on other language environment and 9x platform needed.
