category: Python requires: python37 sdesc: "Python implementation of WHATWG Encoding standard" ldesc: "In order to be compatible with legacy web content, tools need to use a particular set of aliases for encoding labels as well as some overriding rules. For example, US-ASCII and iso-8859-1 on the web are actually aliases for windows-1252, and an UTF-8 or UTF-16 BOM takes precedence over any other encoding declaration. The Encoding standard defines all such details so that implementations do not have to reverse-engineer each other." external-source: python-webencodings
