   In fact, my use would be with cyrillic languages only.   
   And I thought there could be some way to develop something to go from   
   cyrillic to latin and forth using ISO 9. And for resulting latin letters   
   which are still Unicode (like Ł), use &#xxx;   
   Latin would be use to keep text in Paradox database, but it could be   
   then typed and viewed in Cyrillic.   
   Does anybody know if it has been done ? Can be done ?
