Hi,
i have to add another charset to MySQL and i read in the documentation, that this can be done with the "configure" command, but i have some questions about it:
a) if i add a new charset, will i have to recompile MySQL? (due to the "configure" command)
b) "Warning: If you change character sets after having created any tables, you will have to run myisamchk -r -q on every table"
Is this for "changing the character set" only, or also when i add a new to the existing (default) one?
Oh and in general:
I need this, because s.o. wants to use kyrillic charset with MySQL. Is this the way to enable it in MySQL anyway?
Thanks,
