Changes from 0.6.0 to 0.6.1
---------------------------
* Support for many MSDOS codepages
* Show instance for DynEncoding
* More IO functions
* Fancy translation tables for the documentation of auto-generated modules
Changes from 0.5.2 to 0.6.0
---------------------------
* Moved from TemplateHaskell to a custom pre-processor for code-generation.
This is necessary because:
- TemplateHaskell is really slow for large data structures
- TemplateHaskell doesn't yet support the MagicHash extension that is useful for the library
* Use efficient, static data structures for encoding/decoding
* Fixed bug in UTF-8 that could call 'chr' with bad arguments
Changes from 0.5 to 0.5.2
-------------------------
* Export function encodingFromStringExplicit
Changes from 0.4 to 0.5
-----------------------
* Complete rewrite of the Encoding class to allow for
- On-the-fly changing of the encoding while en-/decoding
- Ability to en-/decode from/to any data structure
* A general module to help specify encodings based on ISO 2022
* New encodings:
- JIS X 0201
- JIS X 0208
- ISO 2022-JP
* More test cases
Changes from 0.3 to 0.4
-----------------------
* A new, strict UTF-8 decoder
* Minor bugs fixed in UTF-16 and BootString
* Test cases for UTF-8, UTF-16 and BootString
* Added KOI8U encoding
Changes from 0.2 to 0.3
-----------------------
* Converted to new cabal interface
* Support for GHC 6.8
* Support for new bytestring interface
Changes from 0.1 to 0.2
-----------------------
* Implemented GB18030 encoding
