htmlize-html-charset

htmlize-html-charset is a variable defined in `htmlize.el'.
Its value is

nil

Documentation:
*The charset declared by the resulting HTML documents.
When non-nil, causes htmlize to insert the following in the HEAD section
of the generated HTML:



where CHARSET is the value you've set for htmlize-html-charset. Valid
charsets are defined by MIME and include strings like "iso-8859-1",
"iso-8859-15", "utf-8", etc.

If you are using non-Latin-1 charsets, you might need to set this for
your documents to render correctly. Also, the W3C validator requires
submitted HTML documents to declare a charset. So if you care about
validation, you can use this to prevent the validator from bitching.

Needless to say, if you set this, you should actually make sure that
the buffer is in the encoding you're claiming it is in. (Under Mule
that is done by ensuring the correct "file coding system" for the
buffer.) If you don't understand what that means, this option is
probably not for you.

You can customize this variable.
