[gedit-list] File encoding detection

[Noup <lucky13 mail telepac pt>]

I've been doing some research to find out how to detect the encoding of
a text file. Though, it appears that GEdit successfully detects the
encodings i use most for my files. So i would like to ask you, what
method are you exactly using to detect the encoding of a file?


Thanks in advance,

Pedro Castro.
