    The proposed patch adds support of the CP1125 encoding.

    The CP1125 encoding (also known as IBM866, CP866U (in Microsoft), 866nav (in TeX), RUSCII) is standard DOS encoding for Ukrainian language. It is only one DOS encoding (or at least most popular) suitable for Ukrainian. It is Ukrainian government standard for DOS. The CP1125 encoding differs from CP866 encoding only in 6 codes for Ukrainian letters.

    The proposed patch adds support of the CP1125 encoding.

    Nowadays, a good motivation for supporting a new codec is to be able to start Python 3. For example, I added cp65001 because some using try Python 3 with this Windows code page.

    It looks like at least one user is unable to start Python 3 because he/she uses GEORGIAN-PS as the locale encoding (issue bpo-19459).

    For cp1125: is it used as the ANSI code page on Windows? Otherwise, how do you use this encoding.

    Supporting all encodings in the world is meaningless because they are too many encodings.

    No, it is not official Microsoft codepage (it was introduced by IBM in its PC-DOS). AFAIK this encoding yet widely used in banking software. My old text files were written in this encoding, ;)

    +1 for adding this. It gets enough Google hits to be worth adding.

    Please also add the aliases you mentioned.

    Please also add the aliases you mentioned.

    I have already added these aliases.

    I should remove added in last moment the 'cp866nav' alias from Lib/encodings/aliases.py because it is actually a little different encoding (it have two Byelorussian letters "Ўў" instead cp866 characters "·√" at positions 0xfa-0xfb).
