Frank da CruzSee Using C-Kermit, Chapter 16, for an explanation of the terminology. MIME character-set names were added to C-Kermit in version 9.0. These are simply synonyms for the Kermit names (which predate MIME); wherever you see a MIME name in this table, it can be used in place of the corresponding Kermit name. Of course you can use the Kermit name too; for example ARABIC-ISO and ISO-8859-6 are two names for the same character set. For an illustration of why MIME names are important, see this page.
