- INTRODUCTION.
-
- The aim of this program is to convert an ASCII file to its
- JASCII equivalent in the various japanese encoding standards.
-
-
- USAGE
-
- Ascii2J infile outfile [JIS/NJIS/NEC/EUC/SJIS].
-
- where infile is the input file to be converted to JAscii,
- the format will be the chosen output, you can choose among
- (Old)Jis, NewJis, NEC, EUC, Shift-JIS.
-
- E.G.: Ascii2J kinokuniya.txt kinokuniya.njis NJIS.
-
- a file kinokuniya.njis will be created.
-
-
- LEGAL
-
- This program is provided "AS IS", with NO warranty at all.
- Use it at your own risk, I'm not liable for whatever damage it can
- produce.
- C source is included (this is not GPL,at least not yet, read the source).
-
-
- REQUIREMENTS
-
- Should work on ANY Amigah, it is 101% ANSI C and thus is possible to
- recompile it without changes on other systems (this doesn't mean I allow
- to do it), this version is compiled with DiceC 3.16 for the 68k side and
- VBCC 0.7 for PowerPc and WarpOs.
-
-
- FUTURE
-
- o MorphOs and New Amigas;
- o GUI; (this will spoil the portability anyway)
- o Support for Unicode (but I need proper docs), XC;
- o Make it possible to convert back to ASCII;
- o Any idea?
-
