What do you mean by "encoding". In Unix, one can usually use the "file" command, which reports a string associated with the sequence of bytes in said file.
1. I have a shell script which creates a file using cat command. How can i find what encoding the file follows (e.g. UTF8, ANSI)?
2. I want to convert that file to PC-ANSI format. How can i achieve that?
I am using HP-Unix. (6 Replies)
In a bash script:
src=”cooltrack.wav”
dst=”cooltrack.mp3”
lame $src $dst
I would like to add some line that would delete the source wav file like:
rm $src
but I would like this only if the encoding was successful.
What should I include before deleting the original to check that the... (2 Replies)
Hi,
I have got a zip (binary) file transferred from MacOS (thus it has additional __MACOSX directory packed inside). On extracting this zip, there are few *.xml files available.

Hi,
I am beginner to Unix.
My requirement is to validate the encoding used in the incoming file(csv,txt).If it is encoded with UTF-8 format,then the file should remain as such otherwise i need to chnage the encoding to UTF-8.
Please advice me how to proceed on this. (7 Replies)
Hi, I am trying to determine the encoding for the file, because to convert to UTF-8, it seems as though I have to know the encoding of the source.
Tried this
file <filename>
give me this:
<filename>:data or International Language text
Tried to see the locale and this is the output:... (6 Replies)

strtok_r
STRTOK(3) BSD Library Functions Manual STRTOK(3)NAME
strtok, strtok_r -- string tokens
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>
char *
strtok(char *str, const char *sep);
char *
strtok_r(char *str, const char *sep, char **last);
DESCRIPTION
This interface is obsoleted by strsep(3).
The strtok() function is used to isolate sequential tokens in a null-terminated string, str. These tokens are separated in the string by at
least one of the characters in sep. The first time that strtok() is called, str should be specified; subsequent calls, wishing to obtain
further tokens from the same string, should pass a null pointer instead. The separator string, sep, must be supplied each time, and may
change between calls.
The implementation will behave as if no library function calls strtok().
The strtok_r() function is a reentrant version of strtok(). The context pointer last must be provided on each call. The strtok_r() function
may also be used to nest two parsing loops within one another, as long as separate context pointers are used.
The strtok() and strtok_r() functions return a pointer to the beginning of each subsequent token in the string, after replacing the token
itself with a NUL character. When no more tokens remain, a null pointer is returned.
EXAMPLES
The following uses strtok_r() to parse two strings using separate contexts:
char test[80], blah[80];
char *sep = "\/:;=-";
char *word, *phrase, *brkt, *brkb;
strcpy(test, "This;is.a:test:of=the/string\tokenizer-function.");
for (word = strtok_r(test, sep, &brkt);
word;
word = strtok_r(NULL, sep, &brkt))
{
strcpy(blah, "blah:blat:blab:blag");
for (phrase = strtok_r(blah, sep, &brkb);
phrase;
phrase = strtok_r(NULL, sep, &brkb))
{
printf("So far we're at %s:%s
", word, phrase);
}
}

The strtok() function conforms to ISO/IEC 9899:1990 (``ISO C90'').

BUGS
The System V strtok(), if handed a string containing only delimiter characters, will not alter the next starting point, so that a call to
strtok() with a different (or empty) delimiter string may return a non-NULL value. Since this implementation always alters the next starting
point, such a sequence of calls would always return NULL.
