"Many encodings are a simple mapping of bytes onto characters. The " { $vocab-link "io.encodings.8-bit" } " vocabulary implements these generically using existing resource files. These encodings should be used with extreme caution, as fully general Unicode encodings like UTF-8 are nearly always more appropriate. The following 8-bit encodings are available:"
