Description-en: universal charset detection library - development files
libchardet is based on Mozilla Universal Charset Detector library and
detects the character set used to encode data.
.
The original code was written by Netscape for the Mozilla Browser.
Later, the code was turned into the Encode::Detect Perl module, known
in Debian as libencode-detect-perl. This library switches the Perl
wrapper API, to form a C library with a libtool build environment.
.
This package provides the include files and static libraries
needed to build programs using libchardet.
