I haven't used Bob's TECManager but I'll second its usefulness. Apple's
text encoding support is far more functional than Python's, including
support for just about any script system in use on Windows and on the
Mac. If you go to Safari's View > Text Encoding menu, you'll see a list
of popular text encodings used on the web. Several of them aren't
available in Python, such as Traditional Chinese.
