It would prefer to see the note added by Alexander in the doc mention *only* the preferred spellings (i.e. 'utf-8' and 'iso-8859-1') rather than all the variants that are actually optimized. One of the reasons that lead me to open #5902 is that I didn't like the inconsistencies in the encoding names (utf-8 vs utf8 vs UTF8 etc). Suggesting only one spelling per encoding will fix the problem.
FWIW, the correct spelling is 'latin1', not 'latin-1', but I still prefer 'iso-8859-1' over the two.
(The note could also use some more ``'markup'`` for the encoding names.) |
