| This is almost identical to: http://bugs.python.org/issue854511 However, tis602, which is mentioned in the orginal bug report, is not an alias to cp874. Therefore, I propose the following: import encodings aliases = encodings.aliases.aliases more_aliases = {'ibm874' : 'cp874', 'iso_8859_11': 'cp874', 'iso8859_11' : 'cp874', 'windows_874': 'cp874', } aliases.update(more_aliases) |

Something is wrong with your request, though: * we already have an iso8859_11 code, so aliasing it to some other name is not possible * we already have an cp874 code, so aliasing it to some other name is not possible * cp874 differs from iso8859_11 in a few places, so aliasing cp874 is not possible (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_8859-11#Code_page_874) What we could do is add aliases 'x-ibm874' and 'windows_874' to 'cp874'. I'm not sure whether 'ibm874' and 'x-ibm874' are the same thing. The references only mention 'x-ibm874'. |

The following document says the following are aliases: x-IBM874, cp874, ibm874, ibm-874, 874 http://www.java2s.com/Tutorial/Java/0180__File/DisplaysAvailableCharsetsandaliases.htm http://www.fileformat.info/info/charset/x-IBM874/index.htm In addition it seems that 'windows_874' is used (that's the one that raised this issue for me), but I've also seen references of windows-874, windows874 , WIN874: http://doxygen.postgresql.org/encnames_8c_source.html |

| From what I can tell cp874 != ibm_874 != iso_8859_11 What I can say is that the current cp874 is the implementation of the windows_874 code page. The page itself references the microsoft code page, and also contains the appropriate characters (like EURO SIGN). https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/encodings/cp874.py """ Python Character Mapping Codec cp874 generated from 'MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/WINDOWS/CP874.TXT' with gencodec.py. https://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/WINDOWS/CP874.TXT It seems appropriate to at least alias windows_874 with cp874. They are provably the same. If someone needs the IBM standard, they may have to write a different code page. |

| I've created the codepage alias 874. This is only pending is a merge into the mainline. Thanks. |

| This is an easy alias to a valid codepage. I supplied proof that they are the same. I don't understand why this has been allowed to languish for 9 months. Did I miss something? Is there more work I need to do? Thanks |

| Bumping this again. I'd like to try and understand why this change can not or has not been approved. I added the technical info here to the github PR. Is there a shortage of reviewers? What can I do to help speed up the process? |
