* ↑ and	← not supported instead uses ^ and _
```

### miniencoding.tables

Encode to a charset with:
```python
def toCharset(charset, string, toUpper=False):
	"""Convert unicode text to various charsets using a lookup table

	Args:
		charset (string): lookup table
		string (string): unicode string to convert
		toUpper (bool, optional): Make chars uppercase before converting
		(intended for 6 bit charsets or charsets that do not support uppercase).
		Defaults to False.

	Returns:
		bytes: sequence of bytes (split into bits of length
	"""
```

Decode from a charset to Unicode with:
```python
def toUnicode(charset, bytestream):
	"""Convert text encoded with various charsets to unicode using a charset
	lookup table

	Args:
		charset (string): lookup table
		bytestream (bytes): sequence of bytes (split into bits of length
		log2(len(charset))) to convert

	Returns:
		string: unicode string
	"""
```

Available charsets (or make your own):

## Install With PIP

```python
pip install miniencoding
```

Head to https://pypi.org/project/miniencoding/ for more info


## Language information
### Built for
This program has been written for Python 3 and has been tested with
Python version 3.8.0 <https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-380/>.

## Install Python on Windows
### Chocolatey
```powershell
choco install python
```
### Download
To install Python, go to <https://www.python.org/> and download the latest
version.

## Install Python on Linux

```bash
sudo apt install python3.8
```

## How to run
### With VSCode
1. Open the .py file in vscode
2. Ensure a python 3.8 interpreter is selected (Ctrl+Shift+P > Python:Select
Interpreter > Python 3.8)
