Doesn't need native code compilation.\n*   Easy API.\n*   Works on Windows and in sandboxed environments like [Cloud9](http://c9.io).\n*   Encoding is much faster than node-iconv (see below for performance comparison).\n\n## Usage\n\n    var iconv = require('iconv-lite');\n    \n    // Convert from an encoded buffer to string.\n    str = iconv.decode(buf, 'win1251');\n    \n    // Convert from string to an encoded buffer.\n    buf = iconv.encode(\"Sample input string\", 'win1251');\n\n    // Check if encoding is supported\n    iconv.encodingExists(\"us-ascii\")\n\n\n## Supported encodings\n\n*   All node.js native encodings: 'utf8', 'ucs2', 'ascii', 'binary', 'base64'\n*   All widespread single byte encodings: Windows 125x family, ISO-8859 family, \n    IBM/DOS codepages, Macintosh family, KOI8 family. \n    Aliases like 'latin1', 'us-ascii' also supported.\n*   Multibyte encodings: 'gbk', 'gb2313', 'Big5', 'cp950'.\n\nOthers are easy to add, see the source. Please, participate.\nMost encodings are generated from node-iconv. Thank you Ben Noordhuis and iconv authors!\n\nNot supported yet: EUC family, Shift_JIS.\n\n\n## Encoding/decoding speed\n\nComparison with node-iconv module (1000x256kb, on Ubuntu 12.04, Core i5/2.5 GHz, Node v0.8.7). \nNote: your results may vary, so please always check on your hardware.\n\n    operation             iconv@1.2.4   iconv-lite@0.2.4 \n    ----------------------------------------------------------\n    encode('win1251')     ~115 Mb/s     ~230 Mb/s\n    decode('win1251')     ~95 Mb/s      ~130 Mb/s\n\n\n## Notes\n\nWhen decoding, a 'binary'-encoded string can be used as a source buffer.  \nUntranslatable characters are set to � or ?. No transliteration is currently supported, pull requests are welcome.\n\n## Testing\n\n    git clone git@github.com:ashtuchkin/iconv-lite.git\n    cd iconv-lite\n    npm install\n    npm test\n    \n    # To view performance:\n    node test/performance.js\n\n## TODO\n\n*   Support streaming character conversion, something like util.pipe(req, iconv.fromEncodingStream('latin1')).\n*   Add more encodings.\n*   Add transliteration (best fit char).\n*   Add tests and correct support of variable-byte encodings (currently work is delegated to node).\n",
