Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install libguess on Fedora 34.

What is `libguess`

libguess employs discrete-finite automata to deduce the character set of the input buffer. The advantage of this is that all character sets can be checked in parallel, and quickly. Right now, libguess passes a byte to each DFA on the same pass, meaning that the winning character set can be deduced as efficiently as possible. libguess is fully reentrant, using only local stack memory for DFA operations. libguess 1.2 13.fc34 x86_64 17 k libguess-1.2-13.fc34.src.rpm fedora High-speed character set detection library http BSD libguess employs discrete-finite automata to deduce the character set of the input buffer.
