trchan(1)
trchan --
translate character sets
Synopsis
trchan [-ciko] mapfile
Description
trchan performs mapping as a filter, using the same format of
mapfile
as
mapchan [see
mapchan(4)
for mapfile format].
This allows a file consisting of
one internal character set to be translated to another
internal character set.
trchan reads standard input, maps it, and writes to standard output.
A mapfile must be given on the command line.
Errors cause trchan to stop processing unless -c is specified.
The following options can be used with trchan:
-c-
causes errors to be echoed on stderr, and processing is continued.
-i-
specifies that the input section of the mapfile
is used when translating data.
-k-
specifies that the dead and compose sections of the
mapfile are used when translating data.
-o-
specifies that the output section of the
mapfile is used when translating data.
The
-i,
-k
and
-o
options can be specified in any combination;
if none are specified, trchan uses the entire
mapfile, as if all three were specified together.
Files
/usr/lib/mapchan/*

currently ignores the control sections of the mapfile.
