Simple question:

Is there a built-in function in PHP to get the charset of a file, so that
I can pass the right parameters to recode_file()?

It depends.

If it is a .txt file (nope)
a .doc file (mabey, pending the .doc format)
a .xml file (most likely, unless it is a poorly formatted xml file)

It all depends how the document is stored and if it keeps the charset
within the document.

I want something more like the output of the unix command "file -i" (without running a system call). And yes, they are text files.
