 Description: zap Windows Western gremlin characters
- CP1252 or "Windows Western" is a superset of Latin-1.  Accidentally
- treating such strings as either Latin-1 or UTF-8 is common, and leads
- to "gremlins" - broken misfit characters.
+ CP1252 (Windows Western) is a superset of ISO8859-1 (Latin-1).
+ Accidentally mixing CP1252 with ISO8859-1 is common, causing "gremlins"
+ - broken misfit characters.
  .
  Encode::ZapCP1252 detects freak characters and either transliterates
  them into ASCII counterparts or translates them to UTF-8 equivalents.
+ .
+ Processed strings are assumed to contain a mixture of ASCII, ISO8859-1
+ and CP1252, but no actual UTF-8 characters (even if encoded as such).
+ For string soups including UTF-8 characters, Encoding::FixLatin may be
+ better suitable.
