Gets the list of default candidate encodings to try when loading a file. See gtk_source_file_loader_set_candidate_encodings().
This function returns a different list depending on the current locale (i.e. language, country and default encoding). The UTF-8 encoding and the current locale encoding are guaranteed to be present in the returned list.
Use this function to escape the following characters: \n, \r, \t and \.
For a regular expression search, use g_regex_escape_string() instead.
One possible use case is to take the #GtkTextBuffer's selection and put it in a search entry. The selection can contain tabulations, newlines, etc. So it's better to escape those special characters to better fit in the search entry.

the text to escape.
Use this function before gtk_source_search_settings_set_search_text(), to
unescape the following sequences of characters: \n, \r, \t and \\.
The purpose is to easily write those characters in a search entry.
Note that unescaping the search text is not needed for regular expression searches.

Gets all encodings.
