were added to C-Kermit in version 9.0. These are simply synonyms
for the Kermit names (which predate MIME); wherever you see a MIME name in
this table, it can be used in place of the corresponding Kermit name. Of
course you can use the Kermit name too; for example ARABIC-ISO and
ISO-8859-6 are two names for the same character set. For an illustration of
why MIME names are important, see
