the xml declaration should have defined the encoding, but as a work-around
try using this:

http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/io/InputStreamReader.html#InputStreamReader%28java.io.InputStream,%20java.lang.String%29

to adapter the inputstream with a charset into a reader, then pass this
reader to the InputSource.

This is perhaps as much a tag soup question as an XOM one, but I'm
trying to read a file created in a Windows character set and then copied
to our production Linux system.

Has anyone experience in explicitly setting the input character set so
that the sax parser, in this case tag soup, can interpret it properly?
I've experimented with setting the encoding with an InputSource, but
with no visible effect.
