I am very satisfied with Wordsmith Tools by Mike Scot.  It supports
three most frequent code tables for Russian (Win 1251, DOS 866 and
KOI8-R).  A (relatively) cheap classroom licence can be bought from
OUP.  A demo version is available from:

(Please join the two previous lines before trying it -- my mail
program does not like long lines :-)

Vsego dobrogo,

Vlado B, 9:30 morning time
