Charco

Have you ever need to convert a string into a different character set? If so, Charco may be a helpful tool for you. This software offers an interface to a character set conversion facility. Charco supports the most common character set encodings found in Windows, OS X, and Linux, including a full complement of UTF-encodings.

How to use Charco? It's simple. To change character set encodings for the text in your file, follow these four steps: First, select the input file by pressing the Input File button. Second, select the character encoding for the input file. Third, select the encoding you want the output file to be in. Finally, press the Save As button to select the name for the output file which will contain the text in its new character encoding. Once you select the file name for the output file, the recoding process will run.

In summary, Charco is a useful software tool that can convert a string represented by a local character set into the one represented by another character set. All you need to do is follow a simple four-step procedure to change character set encodings for the text in your files. The only requirement is the use of the GTK+ 2.x. framework.
