Re: Is there a term for strictly-just-this-encoding-and-not-really-that-encoding?

[Johannes Rössel]

(Ok, I messed up a bit, the signature for an encoding itself should 
probably be something like seq BYTE → CHAR to allow for UTF-8 or UTF-16 
properly; the simplistic ℕ → CHAR doesn't suffice for all encodings. 
Nevertheless, my point should still stand)
