                    <span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>::rivet::decode</strong></span></span> implements the inverse function of
                    <span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>::rivet::encode</strong></span></span>. The input string is scanned searching
                    and replacing every SGML entity with its corresponding character.
                    By default the command assumes the output string has to be encoded in UTF-8.
                    Other encodings are supported by passing the 
                    <span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>-encoding &lt;encoding&gt;</strong></span></span> argument.
