Oops, didn't saw this one when answering to the previous one.

Well, encoding detection it's better, but:

1) it could even become a single re, with "(coding|charset)"
2) the space is useless in "[:= ]" since it'd be matched just after
3) the geany_debug() call is redundant with encodings.c:357

I'm just wondering whether these aren't a little too loose in real
world, but they look OK (not like the ones of the previous patch ^^).

and the changes in socket.c shouldn't be in the same commit ;)
