3.4. Defining aliases for character sets

Usage: charset-hook alias charset
Usage: iconv-hook charset local-charset

The charset-hook command defines an alias for a character set. This is useful to properly display messages which are tagged with a character set name not known to mutt.

The iconv-hook command defines a system-specific name for a character set. This is helpful when your systems character conversion library insists on using strange, system-specific names for character sets.
