    // Quoted-printable encode/decode the iso-8859-1
    // representation of the string.  Notice how each
    // Icelandic char is represented by 1 byte:
    crypt.put_Charset("iso-8859-1");
    const char *qp = crypt.encryptStringENC(s);
    std::cout << "iso-8859-1:" << "\r\n";

    std::cout << decoded << "\r\n";

    // Now do the same using utf-8. Notice how each
    // Icelandic char is represented by 2 bytes in utf-8:
    crypt.put_Charset("utf-8");
    const char *qp = crypt.encryptStringENC(s);
    std::cout << "utf-8:" << "\r\n";
    std::cout << qp << "\r\n";
