That is a hard problem.... if it has 8-bit data in it and the utf-8 decoder works, its probably utf-8
If there is no 8-bit data it is most likely ascii |

If it has a unicode byte order mark (0xFFFE or 0xFEFF) at the beginning it is probably raw UCS-16
If you are in norway and its not utf-8 and not ascii, it might be iso-8859-15
Or who knows, it might be chinese in some two-byte encoding |
