The problem persists:
I can tranform every table with isotransfer very good, but...
I want webEdit to convert automatically.

My situation:
Server is PC
I want to use my iBook for offline presentations and a little editing. It is
hard to remember the tables that have been edited and should be reconverted
before checking in again.

How can the verbs string.latinToMac(s) (and it's converse
string.macToLatin(s)) be integrated to the checking in and out of webEdit?

Although I wrote the suite, if you've got Frontier 7, it might be easier to use the verb string.latinToMac(s) (and it's converse string.macToLatin(s)). 

Since that verb brings the functionality of the latinToMac.convert UCMD over to the Windows side, it's probably better to stick with Userland supported/documented tools if you're starting from scratch.

(who was always confused about the latinToMac verb until he read the new docs (http://docserver.userland.com/string/latinToMac)
