.IX Title "PICONV 1"
.TH PICONV 1 "2002-08-28" "perl v5.8.0" "Perl Programmers Reference Guide"
.SH "NAME"
piconv \-\- iconv(1), reinvented in perl
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 2
\&  piconv [-f from_encoding] [-t to_encoding] [-s string] [files...]
\&  piconv -l
.Ve
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBpiconv\fR is perl version of \fBiconv\fR, a character encoding converter
widely available for various Unixen today.  This script was primarily
a technology demonstrator for Perl 5.8.0, but you can use piconv in the
place of iconv for virtually any case.
.PP
piconv converts the character encoding of either \s-1STDIN\s0 or files
specified in the argument and prints out to \s-1STDOUT\s0.
.PP
Here is the  list of options.
.IP "\-f from_encoding" 4
.IX Item "-f from_encoding"
Specifies the encoding you are converting from.  Unlike \fBiconv\fR,
this option can be omitted.  In such cases, the current locale is used.
.IP "\-t to_encoding" 4
.IX Item "-t to_encoding"
Specifies the encoding you are converting to.  Unlike \fBiconv\fR,
this option can be omitted.  In such cases, the current locale is used.
.Sp
Therefore, when both \-f and \-t are omitted, \fBpiconv\fR just acts
like \fBcat\fR.
.IP "\-s \fIstring\fR" 4
.IX Item "-s string"
uses \fIstring\fR instead of file for the source of text.  Same as \fBiconv\fR.
.IP "\-l" 4
.IX Item "-l"
Lists all available encodings, one per line, in case-insensitive
order.  Note that only the canonical names are listed; many aliases
exist.  For example, the names are case\-insensitive, and many standard
and common aliases work, such as \*(L"latin1\*(R" for \*(L"\s-1ISO\-8859\-1\s0\*(R", or \*(L"ibm850\*(R"
instead of \*(L"cp850\*(R", or \*(L"winlatin1\*(R" for \*(L"cp1252\*(R".  See Encode::Supported
for a full discussion.
.IP "\-C \fIN\fR" 4
.IX Item "-C N"
Check the validity of the stream if \fIN\fR = 1.  When \fIN\fR = \-1, something
interesting happens when it encounters an invalid character.
.IP "\-c" 4
.IX Item "-c"
Same as \f(CW\*(C`\-C 1\*(C'\fR.
.IP "\-p" 4
.IX Item "-p"
Same as \f(CW\*(C`\-C \-1\*(C'\fR.
.IP "\-h" 4
.IX Item "-h"
Show usage.
.IP "\-D" 4
.IX Item "-D"
Invokes debugging mode.  Primarily for Encode hackers.
.IP "\-S scheme" 4
.IX Item "-S scheme"
Selects which scheme is to be used for conversion.  Available schemes
are as follows:
.RS 4
.IP "from_to" 4
.IX Item "from_to"
Uses Encode::from_to for conversion.  This is the default.
.IP "decode_encode" 4
.IX Item "decode_encode"
Input strings are \fIdecode()\fRd then \fIencode()\fRd.  A straight two-step
implementation.
.IP "perlio" 4
.IX Item "perlio"
The new perlIO layer is used.  \s-1NI\-S\s0' favorite.
.RE
.RS 4
.Sp
Like the \fI\-D\fR option, this is also for Encode hackers.
