How to convert the internal code of a text file in Linux [zz]

There are a lot of software in Windows that can be used to convert the file encoding, such as converting big5 to gb2312

This can also be done in Linux.

This command is iconv.

For example, to convert the foo.txt file in gb2312format to the big5 internal code, you can use

Iconv-F gb2312-T big5 foo.txt> foo1.txt

This new file foo1.txt is the big5 internal code.

Convert the big5's foo.txt file to the gb2312 internal code

Iconv-F big5-T gb2312 foo.txt> foo2.txt

Convert the gb2312 internal code file into a UTF-8

Iconv-F gb2312-T UTF-8 foo.txt> foo3.txt

Finally, batch conversion is used to convert all the files in a directory into the internal code we need.

Foo1.txt foo2.txt foo3.txt... foon.txt is the internal code of gb2312.

Make a special trip to big5, and add big5 as the suffix.

Create a script gb2312_2_big5.sh with the following content:

Ls *. txt | while read I

Do iconv-F gb2312-T big5 $ I >$ I. big5

Done

Save and run

Sh gb2312_2_big5.sh

To complete the conversion.
