Portable.Text.Encoding
The main goal of this project is to supply a portable alternative to System.Text.Encoding that can be used from other PCL libraries. Platforms such as Windows Phone currently do not provide support for text encodings other than a limited subset of the Unicode encodings. This can be a real show-stopper when you need to work with legacy text encodings. Currently supported encodings include: ASCII, Unicode (including UTF-8 and UTF-7) encodings, the Western encodings (IBM437, IBM850, IBM860, IBM861, IBM862, IBM863, IBM865, ISO-8859-1, ISO-8859-2, ISO-8869-3, ISO-8859-7, ISO-8859-15, Windows-1250, Windows-1252, Windows-1253, Macintosh and Mac-Icelandic), and the Chinese/Japanese/Korean set of encodings.
