Hi,
I was googling quite some time before finding the answer to my
question:
'what are the names for the encodings supported by python?'
I found the answer at http://python.active-venture.com/lib/
node127.html
Now my question:
Can I find the same info in the standard python doc or query python
with
a certain command to print out all existing codings?
Look under the heading "Standard Encodings":
http://docs.python.org/library/codecs.html
Note that both the page you found (which appears to be a copy of the
Python documentation) and the reference I provide say, "Neither the
list of aliases nor the list of languages is meant to be exhaustive".
I guess one reason for this is that different Python implementations
could choose to offer codecs for additional encodings.
