iconv command

The fromcode and tocode names can be any of the base and alias names listed in the iconv configuration file,
/usr/lib/nls/iconv/config.iconv.

What is the "standard/default HPUX fromcode"?

"C" and "POSIX" are not valid fromcodes, but from what I read roman8 appears to be the default.

iconv -f roman8 -t utf8 foo > bar

If I do: diff foo bar, there is no difference.

How can that be?

Re: iconv command

Hi Donald:

I believe that the locales are the same and no conversion would be expected:

I agree they are the same.
