  • Two things: 1. Congrats on finding uconv for me. 2. I discovered uconv -x 'hex-any; any-name' and this is time for me to ditch iconv ! Commented Mar 1, 2024 at 10:30
  • Compare printf %s '🧚' | uconv -x Any-Hex with printf %s '🧚' | uconv -x Any-Hex/C though. I'd avoid the Hex alone variants. Commented Mar 1, 2024 at 10:40
  • Note to self uconv does not support traditional shift-jis, eg. $ echo -n '\' | uconv -f shift-jis -t utf8 Commented Mar 1, 2024 at 14:05

    Try uconv -f cp943 -t utf-8 instead (see uconv -l showing 3 different variants of Shift_JIS) Commented Mar 1, 2024 at 14:21
