SUMMARY
In Kate it is not possible to choose MacRoman encoding

I was able to transcode my file from it to utf-8 with:

`iconv -f macintosh -t UTF-8 < input.txt > output.txt`


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open text file in kate
2. In the bottom line, change encoding

OBSERVED RESULT
There is no option to select MacRoman encoding

EXPECTED RESULT
Possibility to switch to MacRoman Encoding

We support all encodings that Qt provides via ICU.

If that is missing there, one needs to report that upstream.
