charset
Character encoding used when interpreting string input as a text label.
type: string, default: "UTF-8"
The default value is "UTF-8". The other legal values are:
-
"utf-8"/"utf8"(default value) -
"iso-8859-1"/"ISO_8859-1"/"ISO8859-1"/"ISO-IR-100"/"Latin1"/"l1"/"latin-1" -
"big-5"/"big5": the Big-5 Chinese encoding
The charset attribute is case-insensitive.
Note that if the character encoding used in the input does not match the charset value, the resulting output may be very strange.
It is not possible to use HTML-like labels in combination with Big-5 encoding.
Example
digraph G {
charset="UTF-8"
"🍔" -> "💩"
}
