2.10. lf.win.codepage — Microsoft Windows OEM code pages 720 and 858

The Python standard library does not provide support for Microsoft Windows OEM code pages 720 and 858. This package adds supports for these two code pages.

lf.win.codepage.add_codecs()

Adds the cp720 and cp858 codecs to the global codec registry.

lf.win.codepage.search_function(encoding_name)

Passed to codecs.register() to locate cp720 and cp858 codecs.

Parameter:encoding_name (str) – The name of the encoding. Return type:CodecInfo Returns:A CodecInfo object describing code pages 720 or 858.
