NAME

     detox.tbl -- translation table for detox(1)

OVERVIEW

     detox allows for configuration of how the ISO 8859-1 and UTF-8 (Unicode) filters operate.	Through text based translation tables, it is pos-
     sible to tune how these character sets are interpreted.

SYNTAX

     The format of the translation tables is simple.  There are two levels: one containing meta data and one containing the actual translations.

     default _
	 Default specifies the default translation for a character.  An empty or nonexistent default indicates that any unknown character should
	 fall through to the next filter.  In this manner, it is possible to chain together multiple translation tables in a sequence.

     start
	 Indicates the start of a value list within the translation table.

     start lang
	 Indicates the start of a language specific value list within the translation table.

     end
	 Indicates the end of a value list within the translation table.

     value translation
	 Value can be specified in decimal (1), hex (0x01) or octal (01).  The same rules that apply to sscanf apply here.

	 Translation can be a string or a quoted string, with either single or double quotes.

EXAMPLE

     default   _
     start
     0x0101    a
     0x0102    b
     end
