This file is 2219 bytes long.  Only the very last line has any Big5 characters.
I assume the 2nd argument is the # bytes to check, so retry this
  Type index.html | DETECTCH ??cnpsm 2219

and see if it detects it.

I tried the following.

1. Type index.html | DETECTCH zhcnpsm 2219
2. Type index.html | DETECTCH zhtwpwm 2219
3. Type index.html | DETECTCH cjkpsm 2219

Actual result
 #1 Detect as windows-1252
 #2 Did not detect any charsets
 #3 Did not detect any charsets

zhcnpsm won't detect Big5 at all. Please ignore zhcnpsm in the previous comment.
