TeX-Encode (0.6)

It's fairly easy to use, but the job it does it less than satisfactory when decoding TeX.

Some of the translations are wrong: {\L} is translated to "L" instead of L-stroke ("Ł").

It cannot distinguish between TeX markup, such as \emph{emphasized text} and unrecognized character codes, but it does remove the initial backslash. If I have to separately parse the text to handle other markup, I may as well implement a character decoder there too.

So this module is of little use for decoding.
