===========================

This patches "BB2_Silk_Dresses.esp".

This is the "Silk Dresses" mod from "Korana Morrowind Mods COMPLETE"
(source: https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/27167).


The eight dresses in that mod all have names with non-ASCII characters.
The cause is unknown: translation mixup? non-standard encoding? other?

This patch provides the following names, based on the ID, which does
use ASCII characters. The format will be "Silk Gown - XXX".

ID                      Name
--------------------    -------------------------
KO_Black_Sheith         Silk Gown - Black Sheith
KO_Dupioni_Silk_Gown    Silk Gown - Dupioni
KO_Golden_Dragon        Silk Gown - Golden Dragon
KO_Green_Silk           Silk Gown - Green
KO_Lace_Gown            Silk Gown - Lace
KO_Lavender_Gown        Silk Gown - Lavender
KO_Rose_Silk            Silk Gown - Rose
KO_Summerset_Gown       Silk Gown - Summerset
-------------------------------------------------


Update: On further investigation, it looks like this was a mixup with a
Russian translation; and, I suspect, the Russian text was entered using
a Cyrillic encoding. The archive, BB_Silk_Dresses-27167.7z, at the Nexus
link above, shows the file, "?????? ???????? ??????.txt (1 kb)", using
the "Preview file contents". When unpacked, that filename appears as
"Плагин Вечерние платья.txt"; it's mostly full of the same non-ASCII
characters as appeared for the names of the dresses; it does, however,
contain some ASCII text including a Russian URL on the last line.
