Package encoding provides a number of encodings that are missing from the
|
||
|
|
standard Go [encoding]("https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/text/encoding") package.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We hope that we can contribute these to the standard Go library someday. It
|
||
|
|
turns out that some of these are useful for dealing with I/O streams coming
|
||
|
|
from non-UTF friendly sources.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The UTF8 Encoder is also useful for situations where valid UTF-8 might be
|
||
|
|
carried in streams that contain non-valid UTF; in particular I use it for
|
||
|
|
helping me cope with terminals that embed escape sequences in otherwise
|
||
|
|
valid UTF-8.
