Or just create a custom codec by taking the one in
Lib/encodings/cp1252.py and modifying it slightly.


>>> import codecs
>>> import cp1252a
>>> codecs.register(lambda n: cp1252a.getregentry() if n =3D=3D "cp1252a" e=
lse None)
>>> b'\x81\x8d\x8f\x90\x9d'.decode('cp1252a')
'=E2=99=95=E2=99=96=E2=99=97=E2=99=98=E2=99=99'
