Hi,

From Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-16/UCS-2)
"UTF-16 is the native internal representation of text in the Microsoft Windows NT/2000/XP/CE, Qualcomm BREW operating systems; the Java and .NET bytecode environments; Mac OS X's Cocoa and Core Foundation frameworks; and the Qt cross-platform graphical widget toolkit."

As such, please add UTF-16 charset.

Thanks :)

Please add UTF-32 at the same time this is addressed also. Thanks!
