Working with MH and MT in figuring out special character stuff. MT already had some utilities built in to deal with characters encoded like {s} in the unicode, so there's a starting point. I had to wrestle with the sgml to tei code a bit to get it work. Started to build a taxonomies doc in ISE3's SVN repo with the chars in it. Note: OSX's documentation seems to be false when it says that by default it encodes in UTF-8. It was producing wonky output unless you appended the argument: -b=UTF-8.
