15 KOI8-R is the character set of choice for encoding Russian
16 texts for many Unix-like operation systems. KOI8-R is a
17 successor for KOI-8, a de-facto standard for Internet Mail,
18 News, WWW and other interactive services at least all over

27 KOI8-R was designed for mixed Russian/English texts and
28 covers only Russian Cyrillic characters, so if you're
29 looking for Ukrainian, Byelorussian, etc. Cyrillic
30 characters, try ISO-IR-111, or KOI8-U (Ukrainian Character
31 Set), or KOI8-C (for ancient Russian texts) instead, which
32 are identical to KOI8-R in the Russian Cyrillic letters
33 area.
