From UTF-8 to octal and back
Hi! I'm currently playing with Djvu and have some troubles with text information passed to it. By standard, all non-ASCII text should be represented as UTF-8 encoded octal string, i.e. \320\222\320\262\320\265\320\264\320\265\320\275\320\270\320\265 (in this particular example we have Russian word "Введение"). The problem is: I don't know how to convert from usual string ("Введение") to octal (represented above) and back. I mean, I understand algorithm, but I don't know how to do it in a simple way. I thought about writing small C program to do that, but I guess there are some piece of software performing this task already, so I better ask in mailing list first. Any advices? -- Regards, Alexander Batischev 1024D/69093C81 F870 A381 B5F5 D2A1 1B35 4D63 A1A7 1C77 6909 3C81 signature.asc Description: Digital signature
