DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
tconv is a code converter to do code conversion from CCDC/Big5/EUCCNS(locale:
zh_TW.ccdc/zh_TW.big5/zh_TW.eucTW) internal code to
another local Taiwanese 2-byte or 3-byte Traditional-Chinese internal
code, or to Unicode in UCS2 or UTF8 format; as well the conversion of
Big5 code(Traditional-Chinese) to GB code(Simplified-Chinese)
(locale:zh_CN.hp15CN) or GBK code.
It provides fourteen processing modes.
Mode (1) : tconv
The first one is an interactive menu mode. Just invoke the command.
It will display the main menu, and prompt you for which kind of code
conversion you need(whether it is between 2-byte and 2-byte, 3-byte
and 2-byte, 4-byte and 2-byte, Traditional-Chinese code and
Simplified-Chinese code or even Unicode). After you choose, if it's

2-byte and 2-byte, it will display the 2-byte code code conversion
sub-menu and prompt you what type of code conversion you need and then
ask you your input filename and output filename. If it's 3-byte and
2-byte, it will show the usage of it and ends. If it's 4-byte and 2-
byte, it will display the 4-byte code code conversion sub-menu and
prompt you what type of code conversion you need and then ask you your
input filename and output filename. And then, if it's TraditionalChinese
and Simplified-Chinese, it will display the TraditionalChinese
and Simplified-Chinese code code-conversion sub-menu and
prompt you what type of code conversion you need and then ask you your
input filename and output filename. Finally, if it is Unicode, it will
display the Unicode code conversion sub-menu and prompt you what type
of code conversion you need and then ask you your input and output
filenames.
Mode (2) : tconv 1
The second is also a menu mode. If you invoke the command. It will go
directly to the 2-byte code code conversion sub-menu.
Mode (3) : tconv 1 num infile outfile
The third is used to convert one 2-byte code text file to another code
type text file in command mode. The infile stands for the input
filename, outfile for output filename. And num is the selection number
you can find out from the interactive menu mode. Below is the
description of them :
num = 1 : From HP Big5 code to IBM 5550 code.
2 : From HP Big5 code to CDC code.
3 : From HP Big5 code to National Standard code.
4 : From HP Big5 code to HP CCDC code.
5 : From HP Big5 code to Shift-Big5 code.
6 : From HP Big5 code to Taipei Computer Association code.
7 : From HP Big5 code to Tien-Lon code.
8 : From HP CCDC code to IBM 5550 code.

Mode (4) : tconv 1 -n num -f file_of_namelist
The fourth is used to convert many files with one tconv 1 command. You
have to create a file with all the filenames you want to convert. Let
the file name be file_of_namelist , and the format of the file is :
<file1>
<file2>
<file3>
.
.
.
<EOF>
Then use the command to convert all those files in batch mode. Also,
same as Mode (3), num is the selection number you can find from the
interactive menu mode. Notice that you can only do one kind of
conversion to all the files in file_of_namelist , and there is no
output filenames, all the files will be put into original file names
which you specify in file_of_namelist.
Mode (5) :
tconv 2 [-r] [-ps] [-rs number] -m method -i infile -o outfile
The fifth is the command tconv 2 , it is for code conversion
between WANG's 3-byte internal code and HP's CCDC or Big5 code.
It only supports batch mode procssing. Each tconv 2 command will
convert one text file.
Options [Toc] [Back]
Options for tconv 2 are interpreted as follows:
-r this option means fixed record length.
Default is free format. This option is useful
to text file.
-rs number this option is used to specify the record
size of the file. For example '-rs 80' means
that the record size is 80. The range of
- 3 - Formatted: January 24, 2005

number is between 0 and 10240.
-ps while converting from WANG to CCDC or Big5.
Each 3-byte code will be converted to one 2-
byte code and one 1-byte space. It implies
fixed record length.
-m wang_hp convert from WANG's 3-byte code to HP's 2-
byte CCDC code
-m wang_big5 convert from WANG's 3-byte code to 2-byte
Big5 code
-m hp_wang convert from HP's 2-byte CCDC code to WANG's
3-byte code
-m big5_wang convert from 2-byte Big5 code to WANG's 3-
byte code
-i infile specify the input text file name
-o outfile specify the output text file name
Mode (6) : tconv 3
The sixth mode is also a menu mode. If you invoke the tconv 3
command. It will go directly to the 4-byte code code conversion
sub-menu. The description is as follow :
(1). From 4-byte Extended Unit Code(EUC) to HP Big5 code.
(2). From 4-byte Extended Unit Code(EUC) to HP CCDC code.
(3). From EUC to New Host Code(Traditional Chinese EBCDIC).
(4). From HP Big5 code to 4-byte Extended Unit Code(EUC).
(5). From HP CCDC code to 4-byte Extended Unit Code(EUC).
(6). From New Host Code(Traditional Chinese EBCDIC) to EUC.
Mode (7) : tconv 3 num infile outfile
The seventh is used to convert one 4-byte code text file to
another code type text file in command mode. The infile stands
for the input filename, outfile for output filename. And num is
the selection number you can find out from the interactive menu
mode. Below is the description of them :
num = 1 : From 4-byte Extended Unit Code(EUC) to HP Big5 code.
2 : From 4-byte Extended Unit Code(EUC) to HP CCDC code.
3 : From EUC to New Host Code(Traditional Chinese EBCDIC).
