[ Example ]


import "github.com/bjarneh/latinx"

// fetch converter for desired charset
converter := latinx.Get(latinx.ISO_8859_1)

// convert a stream of ISO_8859_1 bytes to UTF-8
utf8bytes,err := converter.Decode(latin1bytes)

// encode a UTF-8 stream as ISO_8859_1
latin1bytes, size, err := converter.Encode(utf8bytes)

if err != nil {
    log.Fatalf("encoded: %d, not: %d, err: %s", size, len(utf8bytes), err)
}
