Inspired by this question, can i use the iconv command to generate utf-16 output with a bom and with specified endianness? The iconv command converts text from one encoding to another. May 30, 2023i found a solution which shows off a program called "iconv", and even the full command needed to carry out the conversion.

Feb 7, 2020i'm trying to work out how to convert a file to utf-8, but i really can't find much useful info on google other than to use iconv. Nov 18, 2021i get over many of my encoding challenges using "iconv -f iso-8859-1 -t utf-8//translit" which does some basic character munging and any unmappable characters are replaced with a ?. May 3, 2023iconv fails with undefined symbol:

Done this will run iconv -f ascii -t utf-8 to every file ending in .txt, sending the recoded file to a file with the same name but ending in .utf8.txt instead of .txt. I want to convert them all to utf-8, but before running iconv, i need to know its original encoding.
