LookupError: unknown encoding: EUC-TW

[meshy]

This seems similar in nature to #8, but unfortunately, I do not know what to recommend as an alternative to EUC-TW.

One can see that there is nothing that quite matches in Python's list of standard encodings.

I also thought that I should look through the other encodings mentioned in the readme, and found that there are a number of other codecs that did not come up in the list:

• HZ-GB-2312 (although there are other aliases for gb2312) Oops, I see it in the list now.
• ISO-2022-CN
• TIS-620 (appears to be the same as ISO-8859-11 except for no-break space character at 0xA0, which is unassigned in TIS-620)
• X-ISO-10646-UCS-4-2143
• X-ISO-10646-UCS-4-3412

Do you have any recommendations for how I could decode strings that are detected as these types in python?

Further investigation has revealed that python wont fix EUC-TW and ISO-2022-CN encodings.

Just ran into this myself.
