System.Console.Haskeline.Encoding

This module exposes the console Unicode API which is used by the functions in System.Console.Haskeline. On POSIX systems, it uses iconv plus the console's locale; on Windows it uses the console's current code page.

Characters or bytes which cannot be encoded/decoded (for example, not belonging to the output range) will be ignored.
