NAME
tcs - translate character sets
SYNOPSIS
tcs [ -slcv ] [ -f ics ] [ -t ocs ] [ file ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Tcs interprets the named file(s) (standard input default) as a
stream of characters from the ics character set or format,
converts them to runes, and then converts them into a stream of
characters from the ocs character set or format on the standard
output. The default value for ics and ocs is utf, the UTF
encoding described in utf(6). The -l option lists the character
sets known to tcs. Processing continues in the face of
conversion errors (the -s option prevents reporting of these
errors). The -c option forces the output to contain only
correctly converted characters; otherwise, 0x80 characters will
be substituted for UTF encoding errors and 0xFFFD characters
will substituted for unknown characters.
The -v option generates various diagnostic and summary
information on standard error, or makes the -l output more
verbose.
Tcs recognizes an ever changing list of character sets. In
particular, it supports a variety of Russian and Japanese
encodings. Some of the supported encodings are
