Subject: merge suggestion
I started a similar effort, but never made a really good module of it. One other aspect I had covered was guessing the encoding of a terminal device. Therefore I send typical latin1 and utf8 codes, and monitor cursor movement. This reveals if the tty lives in utf8 or latin1 world. If you are interested in integrating something from my code, please see http://search.cpan.org/~jnw/Text-GuessEncoding-0.07/
Hi Jürgen Sorry about taking a year to reply - for some reason I failed to see the original notification from RT. I had a quick look at your module and don't see any pressing argument for merging the modules - they're different enough in their objectives and implementations that they can coexist happily. Cheers Grant
