NAME
native2ascii - native to ASCII converter
SYNOPSIS
native2ascii [ options ]
[ inputfile [outputfile]]
DESCRIPTION
The Java compiler and other Java tools can only process files that con-
tain Latin-1 or Unicode-encoded (\udddd notation) characters.
native2ascii converts files that contain other character encoding into
files containing Latin-1 or Unicode-encoded charaters.
If outputfile is omitted, standard output is used for output. In addi-
tion, if inputfile is omitted, standard input is used for input.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-encoding encoding_name
Specifies the encoding name that is used by the conversion proce-
dure. The default encoding is taken from system property
file.encoding. The encoding_name string must be one taken from
the first column of the table of supported encodings in the Sup-
ported Encodings document:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5/docs/guide/intl/encoding.doc.html
-reverse
Performs the reverse operation: converts a file with Latin-1 or
Unicode-encoded characters to one with native-encoded characters.
-Joption Pass option to the Java virtual machine, where option is
one of the options described on the man page for the
java application launcher, java(1). For example, -J-
Xms48m sets the startup memory to 48 megabytes. It is a
common convention for -J to pass options to the underly-
ing virtual machine.
