I think the encoder can just use codecs.charmap_encode(). The decoder seems could be simpler too. Would be nice to generate the ISO 6937 encoding file from external data (e.g. from glibc localedata) like they are generated for other encodings. Take Tools/unicode/ files as a pattern. Tests are required. A number of lists of encodings should be updated: Doc/library/codecs.rst, Lib/encodings/aliases.py, Lib/locale.py, Lib/test/test_unicode.py, Lib/test/test_codecs.py, Lib/test/test_xml_etree.py.
