  • What does iconv, or the i at least, actually stand for?

I have been hunting high and low for the meaning of the i in iconv. So far I have come up empty. I know a few seriously old unix wonks. I will ask but I'm unhopeful. JoshuaRodman 07:56, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Is there a run-time iconv utility that will convert ASCII text to other character sets? In particular, one that can convert raw-ASCII single-byte text to double-byte text? This would be most valuable to convert (say) Chinese text files that (incorrectly) display in single-byte ASCII text.
