Title:
  Successful return code on encoding error

Status in html2text package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When running html2text on a file with incorrect encoding (e.g.
  indicated as us-ascii, but actually UTF-8), it fails with an error
  message but returns a successful result code (0).

  Actual output:
  -----------------
  $ html2text test.html; echo $?
  Input recoding failed due to invalid input sequence. Unconverted part of text 
follows.
  “Test”)
  </body>
  </html>

  0

  Expected output: (substitute 1 for any appropriate failure code)
  ----------------------
  $ html2text test.html; echo $?
  Input recoding failed due to invalid input sequence. Unconverted part of text 
follows.
  “Test”)
  </body>
  </html>
