They're mappings from Unicode into 8-bit character sets.  Lynx has some
support for generating UTF-8 which is multibyte (though probably not

know enough about that to comment.

there are ".h" files, but no ".tbl" files for these.  They probably reside
in the charset directory because it made someone's makefile rules simpler.
