NAME
b2g.pl - Traditional to Simplified Chinese converter
SYNOPSIS
b2g.pl [ -p ] [ -u ] [ inputfile ...] > outputfile
USAGE
% b2g.pl -p < big5.txt > gbk.txt
% b2g.pl -pu < trad.txt > simp.txt
DESCRIPTION
The b2g.pl utility reads files sequentially, converts them from
Traditional to Simplified Chinese, then writes them to the standard
output. The inputfile arguments are processed in command-line order.
If inputfile is a single dash ("-") or absent, this program reads from
the standard input.
The "-p" switch enables rudimentary phrase-oriented substition via a
small built-in lexicon.
The "-u" switch specifies that both the input and output streams should
be UTF-8 encoded. If not specified, the input stream is assumed to be
in Big5, and the output will be encoded in GBK.
CAVEATS
In pure-perl implementations (pre-5.8 perl or without a C compiler),
"-p" and "-u" cannot be used together.
