I am quite happy with UTF support in phobos, but support for
national codepages is very limited in phobos. Also it is not
conform with ranges. So I decide share my project for supporting
national charsets:
https://bitbucket.org/sibnick/national-encoding.git
Sample code:
import national.charsets, std.array;
dstring s = "123Я";
auto cp1251 = Windows1251.encode(s).array;
auto utf32 = Windows1251.decode(cp1251).array;
ubyte[] cp866 = CHARSETS["cp866"].encode(s).array;
utf32 = CHARSETS["cp866"].decode(cp866).array;
Every codec accepts range of some chars and returns range of
ubytes. Every decoder accepts range of ubytes and returns range
of dchars. This library is not cover UTF codecs, and multibytes
national code pages.
