6 map - An utility to map texts from and to unicode
7
9 map - recode from and to various character sets.
10 Reads from STDIN, writes to STDOUT.
11 usage: map [--from cset] [--to cset] < input.txt > output.txt
12
13 from s Encoding of input files (default "ISO-8859-1")
14 list Lists available character sets and their alias names.
15 to s Encoding of output files (default "ISO-8859-1")
16
18 Maps text from one character set representation to another. This work
19 is actually long time very well done by "recode", but unfortunately
20 recode does not support Unicode and eastern asia character sets. But,
21 if you have pure 8 bit things to do, recode will still be the best
22 solution.
