NAME
        native2ascii - native to ASCII converter
 
SYNOPSIS
        native2ascii [ -encoding encoding_name] [ -reverse ]
             [ inputfile [outputfile]]
 
DESCRIPTION
        The javac(1) compiler and other Javatm tools can only pro­
        cess files that contain Latin-1 or Unicode-encoded (\udddd
        notation)  characters.   The native2ascii command converts
        files that contain other  character  encoding  into  files
        containing Latin-1 or Unicode-encoded charaters.
 
        If outputfile is omitted, standard output is used for out­
        put.  If inputfile is also omitted, standard input is used
        for input.
 
OPTIONS
        The following options are supported:
 
        -encoding encoding_name
                       Specifies the encoding name that is used by
                       the  conversion  procedure.   The   default
                       encoding  is  taken  from  system  property
                       file.encoding.   The  encoding_name  string
                       must  be one taken from the first column of
                       the table of  supported  encodings  in  the
                       Supported Encodings document:

                       ing.doc.html
 
        -reverse       Performs the reverse operation: converts  a
                       file  with Latin-1 or Unicode-encoded char­
                       acters to one with  native-encoded  charac­
                       ters.
