transiso  --  8-bit Character Encoding Converter Generator V1.13
1997-06-14

                                 transiso

Function
        transiso is a program that reads two Character Encoding Descriptions
        Files (the 2nd must be iso10646) and creates a converter program
        source or just a table or a binary translation table file.

Type
        (External) tool

Format
        transiso src_code dst_code tab_name {-c|-t|-u|-b|-n} {-d}

              All parameters in {} are optional.

              Positional parameters:

              src_code    the name of the source Encoding Description File

              dst_code    must be iso10646

              tab_name    this is the filename prefix for the converter source

              optional switches (can be positioned "anywhere")

              -c          create complete ANSI-C program source
                          <tab_name>.tab, <tab_name>.c and <tab_name>.h

              -t          create table file <tab_name>.tab only
                          for #include in C programs

              -u          create table file <tab_name>.uni only
                          this is Unicode A Format as used by unicode.org

              -b          create table binary file <tab_name>.xlt
                          this is used by transce8

              -n          create no file

              -d          dumps tables read (for debugging) to stdout

Note
        Default is "-c". Only one of "-c", "-t", "-b", "-w" and "-n" is
        allowed.

Example
        # create a converter from Codepage 850 to ISO 10646
        transiso cp850 iso10646 850xiso
        # create only the conversion table from Codepage 852 to ISO 10646
        transiso cp852 iso10646 852xiso -t
