Description

Windows-targeted builds can convert text encodings through the MinGW-w64 version of GNU libiconv and libcharset. It helps applications handle character sets when reading files, network data, or localized text.

Encoding conversion bugs can corrupt text or break imports. Test with real multilingual data, especially when moving files between Linux and Windows environments.
