1. Given a bunch of files, how can I find out the encoding of their filenames? 2. Which encoding is the best, more portable, should be preferred...?
Why I need this? I am trying to burn couple of files on Debian Etch using k3b (0.12.17). These files were originally located on another machine running Fedora Core 1 and I copied them onto the Debian machine. However when I am trying to burn them using k3b, I am getting the following error Encountered an incorrectly encoded filename xxxxx.map This may be caused by a system update which changed the local character set. You may use convmv (http://j3e.de/linux/convmv/) to fix the filename encoding. Could not determine size of resulting image file. However inorder to use convmv, I need to know the original encoding and figure out the final encoding and then apply convmv. Any ideas/suggestions/comments? thanks raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/kk288/ http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
