Implement support to encoding other than ascii
Description
Implement support to encoding other than ASCII. The encoding will be specified as Element's parameters. The parser will use the encoding specified in MSH.18 (CHARACTER_SET). but it should also accept a new argument to specify the encoding of the separators. That's because if the separators are encoded with not-ASCII characters (e.g., "é") there's no way to read the encoding from the MSH.18 field
I tried to use hl7apy with Unicode encoding but realize it's probably not supported yet. Any progress on Unicode support?
Hi symbalsyd, at this moment we're not planning a development iteration, but the support to this feature is definetely one of the most important task for the next release.
