Decoding Japanese Text
The following code was written in response to a post on comp.lang.python to show how to obtain a unicode representation of text stored in the Shift-JIS encoding. The original text has also been Base64 encoded for delivery in an e-mail message:

23 s = base64.decodestring(a)
24 qs = QTextCodec.codecForName("Shift-JIS").toUnicode(s)
25 l = QLabel(qs, None)
26 l.show()

This script decodes the Base64 string, uses the appropriate codec to convert the contents into a unicode representation, and shows the result in a label.
Note that you will need suitable fonts installed on your system to see the result.
