If you ever have a choice, choose UTF-8. Do not pick ISO-8859-* charsets, particularly since you stand a good chance of mislabelling them. (Much text labelled ISO-8859-1 is actually Windows-1252. What's the difference? ISO-8859-1 forbids the C1 area, Windows-1252 fills that with some extra characters). -- Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct, not tried it. -- Donald E. Knuth
