Re: Converting codepages to UTF8

P schreef:

Is there a Perl module which implements converting of codepages
(such as you get when running "chcp" in a command prompt) to UTF8?
Something that allows me to specify, for example, codepage 437 and
then converting it to UTF8. I've looked through the documentation for
the module Encode, but it doesn't seem to deal with codepages at all.


chcp is a command to change the parameters of the display.

C:\>chcp /?
Displays or sets the active code page number.

CHCP [nnn]

nnn Specifies a code page number.

Type CHCP without a parameter to display the active code page number.


What do you want to do? If you want to convert a file from one encoding
to another, look for 'iconv'.
