IDA Qt can display program strings using different encodings. You can
specify default encodings for all strings or override the encoding of a specific
string.

The following encodings can be used:
<default> - the default encoding for this string type (8-bit or 16-bit)
<no conversion> - the string bytes are printed using the current system encoding (after translating with XlatAsciiOutput array in the configuration file).
Windows codepages (e.g. 866, CP932, windows-1251)
Charset names (e.g. Shift-JIS, UTF-8, Big5)
You can add new encodings to the list using the contex menu item Insert (Ins hotkey).
On Linux/OS X, you can run "iconv -l" to see the available encodings. Please note that some encodings are not supported on all systems.
