Converting from One Encoding Method to Another

Files saved using one encoding method will not be interpreted properly if LANG specifies another encoding when reading the files. This may be a problem particularly if you display SoftBench remotely. The ISO 8859.1 and EUC encodings are common on non-HP platforms. Use the iconv(1) routines to convert files from one encoding method to another.
