NAME¶

mixconv — transcode mixed-encoding files

SYNOPSIS¶

DESCRIPTION¶

The mixconv utility reads text encoded in a mixture of UTF-8 and a non-UTF 8-bit encoding and converts it to UTF-8.

The non-UTF 8-bit encoding is assumed to be Latin-1, unless a different encoding is specified with the -f option.

The following options are available:

-d

Show debugging information. This option can be specified multiple times to increase the level of detail.

-f charset

Specify the assumed character set for non-ASCII, non-UTF-8 text. The default is “iso8859-1”.

-h

Print a usage message and exit.

-v

Print the source reversion number and exit.

SEE ALSO¶

dirconf(1), iconv(1), regex(3).
