how can I determine source ( txt ) encoding ?
other than guess work - how do I figure how to stop this

“Wales? For six weeks! You’re going to miss me.”

becoming this

Wales? For six weeks! You’re going to miss me.

when I convert to epub or mobi.

I have tried normal settings, then the cp1252 - no joy

with normal settings I get lots of ? in boxes on Kindle replaceing " ! etc.

is there a logical approach ?
