NAME
native2ascii − native to ASCII converter
SYNOPSIS
native2ascii
[ −encoding encoding_name] [
−reverse ] [ −J option ]
[ inputfile [outputfile]]
DESCRIPTION
The javac(1) compiler and other Java tools can only process files that contain Latin-1 or Unicode-encoded (\udddd notation) characters. The native2ascii command 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. If inputfile is also 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 procedure. 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 Supported Encodings document:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/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.

J option |
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 underlying virtual machine. |
