Description

Hi!

HTML history is currently stored using entities for cyrillic. I believe this is the way unicode chars are transmitted and represented in AIM/ICQ. It would be cool to store them as pure unicode in the history so it's easy to search and edit with simple text editors like vi.

Change History

We're changing the log format anyway, so this isn't valid any longer. Plus, storing as HTML entities is the Right Thing since it's an HTML formatted file.

I think that storing unicode sequences is not a right thing when it is possible to store human readable (and indexable) UTF-8, which is perfectly eligible encoding designed for HTML. This is something to keep in mind when changing to a new log format.
