Hello!
Do we really want to keep:
1. The notion of a “binary-friendly” ISO-8859-1 encoding? It’s
actually mostly gone with the iconv change, since every textual
access goes through iconv. For binary accesses, the right API is
(rnrs io ports) or similar.
2. The #f <=> "ISO-8859-1" equivalence for ‘port-encoding’ and
‘set-port-encoding!’. Likewise, commit
d9544bf012b6e343c80b76bd5761b1583cc106a3 makes ‘port-encoding’
always return a string and pt->encoding always be non-NULL.
Sorry for questioning this now, but these are important questions, I
think.
Thanks,
Ludo’.
