The standard string codecs for converting from unicode to strs does not include the GSM 0.38 char mapping used by GSM services (like SMS). I've written a codec for my use based on 'char_mapper' and the skeleton from gencodec.py, though it's a little complicated by the fact that the GSM encoding is semi-multibyte and not just a straight table look-up. Gory details here in the comments: http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/ETSI/GSM0338.TXT The codec is available here: http://github.com/jwishnie/pygsm/tree/f574f6db99c585f785f0c73a080814c043 2c6087/pygsm/gsmcodecs Please consider it, or an optimized/improved version of it, for inclusion with the standard codecs distributed with python |

You should provide your code as a patch against the Python trunk. Also, unit tests should probably be part of Lib/test/test_codecs.py. |

Are there many GSM libraries or applications out there? If not, maybe the codec is best left in your lib, since it wouldn’t be useful for a wide range of uses. Note also that 2.7 is frozen, so substitute “py3k branch” for “trunk” in Antoine’s previous comment. |
