That's what I started to think of implementing: a drop
down list in the preferences dialog box. Which list
should it consist of? What are common encoding
formats? Is there somewhere a list on the internet?
Suggestions are welcome.
What I also could do is that spe changes the default
encoding to the value of the preference box and
restore the previous value when spe exits.

Is there any python library/algorithm for this. It
seems a bit risky to me.
By the way I'm looking still for Mac Os X users to
perform some tests.
