| iconv - character set conversion |
| iconv [-f encoding] [-t encoding] [inputfile ...] |
| The iconv program converts text from one encoding to another encoding. More precisely, it converts from the encoding given for the -f option to the encoding given for the -t option. Either of these encodings defaults to the encoding of the current locale. All the inputfiles are read and converted in turn; if no inputfile is given, the standard input is used. The converted text is printed to standard output. |
| The encodings permitted are system dependent. For the libiconv implementation, they are listed in the iconv_open(3) manual page. |
