$cset = canonical_charset("ANSI X3.4-1968"); # "US-ASCII"
$henc = header_encoding("utf-8"); # "S"
$cset = output_charset("shift_jis"); # "ISO-2022-JP"

Translating text data:

use MIME::Charset qw(:trans);

header_encode(
"xc9xc2xc5xaaxc0xdexc3xefxc5xaa".
"xc7xd1xcaxaaxbdxd0xcexcfxb4xef",
"euc-jp");
# ...returns (< converted >, "ISO-2022-JP", "B");

($text, $charset, $encoding) =
body_encode(
"Collectioneur pathxe9tiquement ".
"xe9clectique de dxe9chets",
"latin1");
# ...returns (< original >, "ISO-8859-1", "QUOTED-PRINTABLE");

$len = encoded_header_len(
