Yup. Works:
user@HOST: ls -T tinyAA.file
m ISO8859-1 T=off tinyAA.file
user@HOST:
user@HOST: iconv -f ISO8859-1 -t IBM-1047 tinyAA.file
Hello, world! 4
user@HOST:
user@HOST: iconv -F -t IBM-1047 tinyAA.file
Hello, world! 4
Of course, since iconv writes only to stdout, there's no complementary
option to set the tag of the output file.
Thanks,
