yudit can convert between different encodings, but if you do not need a
GUI consider uniconv.
ARGUMENTS
- -e encoding
- The encoding determines how yudit interacts with character streams: file input, file output, cut and paste. XInput encoding is set up to use an independent, fixed
encoder. - If you received yudit through the yudit distribution, the
following encodings are inclusively supported: - UTF8, UTF7, 8859_1, 8859_2, 8859_5, 8859_7, 8859_9,
KOI8_R, JIS, SJIS, EUC_JP, ISO2022_KR, EUC_KR, JOHAB,
UHC, GB2312_7, GB2312_8, HZ, BIG5, CTEXT_JA, 10646 JAVA. - For a detailed description of these please refer to uniconv man page.
- file-name
- is the file yudit should read into its buffer at startup.
ENVIRONMENT
The environment variable HOME should point to the user's home
directory, where the .yuditrc configuration file is kept. If
this file is missing yudit tries to recreate it from the system
configuration file. If the file is corrupt yudit exits with an
error dialog. Errors messages are usually replicated in the
standard error ouput of the yudit.
