VMS Help ICONV, CONVERT  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

   Converts characters in a file from one codeset to another codeset.
   The converted characters are written to an output file.

   Format:

        ICONV CONVERT infile outfile

1 - Parameters

   infile

     The file specification of the file that contains the characters
     to be converted.  (Use the /FROMCODE qualifier to specify the
     codeset of the characters in this file.)

   outfile

     The file specification of the file created by ICONV CONVERT.
     (Use the /TOCODE qualifier to specify the codeset of the
     characters in this file.)

2 - Qualifiers

   /FROMCODE=fromcodeset

     A required qualifier that specifies the codeset of the
     characters in the input file (infile).

   /TOCODE=tocodeset

     A required qualifier that specifies the codeset of the
     characters in the output file (outfile).

     Public conversion table files are in the directory defined by
     the logical name SYS$I18N_ICONV.  Put new conversion table files
     in the same directory if you want to make them available
     system-wide.
