/*
* An Encoding instance represents a character encoding usable in Ruby. It is
* defined as a constant under the Encoding namespace. It has a name and
* optionally, aliases:
*
* Encoding::ISO_8859_1.name
* #=> #<Encoding:ISO-8859-1>
*
* Encoding::ISO_8859_1.names
* #=> ["ISO-8859-1", "ISO8859-1"]
*
* Ruby methods dealing with encodings return or accept Encoding instances as
* arguments (when a method accepts an Encoding instance as an argument, it
* can be passed an Encoding name or alias instead).
*
* "some string".encoding
* #=> #<Encoding:UTF-8>
*
* string = "some string".encode(Encoding::ISO_8859_1)
* #=> "some string"
* string.encoding
* #=> #<Encoding:ISO-8859-1>
*
* "some string".encode("ISO-8859-1")
* #=> "some string"
*
* <code>Encoding::ASCII_8BIT</code> is a special encoding that does not
* correspond to any character encoding. In fact it represents the absence of
* encoding and objects with this encoding can be seen as binary data.
*
* == Changing an encoding
*
* The associated Encoding of a String can can be changed in two different
* ways.
*
* First, it is possible to set the Encoding of a string to a new Encoding
* without changing the internal byte representation of the string, with
* String#force_encoding. This is how you can tell Ruby the correct encoding
* of a string.
*
* string
* #=> "R\xC3\xA9sum\xC3\xA9"
* string.encoding
* #=> #<Encoding:ISO-8859-1>
* string.force_encoding(Encoding:UTF-8)
* #=> "Résumé"
*
* Second, it is possible to transcode a string, i.e. translate its internal
* byte representation to another encoding. Its associated encoding is also
* set to the other encoding. See String#encode for the various forms of
* transcoding, and the Encoding::Converter class for additional control over
* the transcoding process.
*
* string
* #=> "R\u00E9sum\u00E9"
* string.encoding
* #=> #<Encoding:UTF-8>
* string = string.encode! Encoding::ISO_8859_1
* #=> "R\xE9sum\xE9"
* string.encoding
* #=> #<Encoding::ISO-8859-1>
*
* == Locale encoding
*
* All Ruby source code has an associated Encoding which any String literal
* created in the source code will be associated to.
*
* The default locale encoding is <code>Encoding::US-ASCII</code>, but it can
* be changed by a magic comment on the first line of the source code file (or
* second line, if there is a shebang line on the first). The comment must
* contain the word <code>coding</code> or <code>encoding</code>, followed
* by a colon, space and the Encoding name or alias:
*
* # encoding: UTF-8
*
* "some string".encoding
* #=> #<Encoding:UTF-8>
*
* The <code>__ENCODING__</code> keyword returns the locale encoding that is
* currently active:
*
* # encoding: ISO-8859-1
*
* __ENCODING__
* #=> #<Encoding:ISO-8859-1>
*
* <code>ruby -K</code> will change the default locale encoding, but this is
* not recommended. Ruby source files should include the locale encoding
* comment even when they depend on US-ASCII strings or regular expressions.
*
* == External encoding
*
* Each IO object has an external encoding which indicates the encoding that
* Ruby will use to read its data. By default Ruby sets the external encoding
* of an IO object to the default external encoding (initialized from the
* user's environment, set with the interpreter <code>-E</code> option).
* Encoding.default_external returns the current value of the external
* encoding.
*
* ENV["LANG"]
* #=> "UTF-8"
* Encoding.default_external
* #=> #<Encoding:UTF-8>
*
* $ ruby -E ISO-8859-1 -e "p Encoding.default_external"
* #<Encoding:ISO-8859-1>
*
* $ LANG=C ruby -e 'p Encoding.default_external'
* #<Encoding:US-ASCII>
*
* The default external encoding may also be set through
* Encoding.default_external=, but you should not do this as strings created
* before and after the change will have inconsistent encodings. Instead use
* <code>ruby -E</code> to invoke ruby with the correct external encoding.
*
* When you know that the actual encoding of the data of an IO object is not
* the default external encoding, you can reset its external encoding with
* IO#set_encoding or set it at IO object creation (see IO.new options).
*
* == Internal encoding
*
* To process the data of an IO object which has an encoding different
* from its external encoding, you can set its internal encoding. Ruby will use
* this internal encoding to transcode the data when it is read from the IO
* object.
*
* Conversely, when data is written to the IO object it is transcoded from the
* internal encoding to the external encoding of the IO object.
*
* The internal encoding of an IO object can be set with
* IO#set_encoding or at IO object creation (see IO.new options).
*
* The internal encoding is optional and when not set, the Ruby default
* internal encoding is used. If not explicitly set this default internal
* encoding is +nil+ meaning that by default, no transcoding occurs.
*
* The default internal encoding can be set with the interpreter option
* <code>-E</code>. Encoding.default_internal returns the current internal
* encoding.
*
* $ ruby -e 'p Encoding.default_internal'
* nil
*
* $ ruby -E ISO-8859-1:UTF-8 -e "p [Encoding.default_external, \
* Encoding.default_internal]"
* [#<Encoding:ISO-8859-1>, #<Encoding:UTF-8>]
*
* The default internal encoding may also be set through
* Encoding.default_internal=, but you should not do this as strings created
* before and after the change will have inconsistent encodings. Instead use
* <code>ruby -E</code> to invoke ruby with the correct internal encoding.
