Full Discussion: Need to send attachment in Mail without using uuencode via script in AIX6.1
Operating Systems AIX Need to send attachment in Mail without using uuencode via script in AIX6.1 Post 302658403 by methyl on Tuesday 19th of June 2012 08:42:11 AM

In this context, uucode is the name of a character set. It is the character set conversion used by uuencode and uudecode .
Coincidentally there is a an AIX unix command called uucode but it has nothing to do with data conversion.

The syntax for iconv is in man iconv. There is extensive background information about the various converters on the IBM website.
Help - AIX 6.1 Information Center and search for iconv .

iconv

ICONV(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						  ICONV(1)

NAME

     iconv -- codeset conversion utility

SYNOPSIS

     iconv [-cs] -f from_name -t to_name [file ...]
     iconv -f from_name [-cs] [-t to_name] [file ...]
     iconv -t to_name [-cs] [-f from_name] [file ...]
     iconv -l

DESCRIPTION

     The iconv utility converts the codeset of file (or from standard input if no file is specified) from codeset from_name to codeset to_name and
     outputs the converted text on standard output.

     The following options are available:

     -c    Prevent output of any invalid characters.  By default, iconv outputs an ``invalid character'' specified by the to_name codeset when it
	   encounts a character which is valid in the from_name codeset but does not have a corresponding character in the to_name codeset.

     -f    Specifies the source codeset name as from_name.

     -l    Lists available codeset names.  Note that not all combinations of from_name and to_name are valid.

     -s    Silent.  By default, iconv outputs the number of ``invalid characters'' to standard error if they exist.  This option prevents this be-
	   haviour.

     -t    Specifies the destination codeset name as to_name.

EXIT STATUS

     The iconv utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

SEE ALSO

STANDARDS

     iconv conform to IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 (``POSIX.1'').

HISTORY

     iconv first appeared in NetBSD 2.0, and made its appearance in FreeBSD 9.0.
