: '''encoding convertfrom''' ?''encoding''? ''data'' Convert ''data'' to Unicode characters from the specified encoding. The characters in ''data'' are treated as binary data where the lower 8-bits of each character is taken as a single byte (i.e., ''data'' is interpreted as a byte array). The resulting sequence of bytes is treated as a string in the specified ''encoding''. If ''encoding'' is not specified, the current system encoding is used. ---- **See also** * [encoding] * [encoding convertto] * [encoding names] * [encoding system] ---- !!!!!! %| [Category Command] | [Tcl syntax help] | [Category Binary Data] |% !!!!!!
