Description: python-webencodings
        ===================
        
        This is a Python implementation of the `WHATWG Encoding standard
        <http://encoding.spec.whatwg.org/>`_.
        
        * Latest documentation: http://packages.python.org/webencodings/
        * Source code and issue tracker:
          https://github.com/gsnedders/python-webencodings
        * PyPI releases: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/webencodings
        * License: BSD
        * Python 2.6+ and 3.3+
        
        In order to be compatible with legacy web content
        when interpreting something like ``Content-Type: text/html; charset=latin1``,
        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.
        
        This module has encoding labels and BOM detection,
        but the actual implementation for encoders and decoders is Python’s.
