This article is about how to view file encodings in Linux. The editor thinks it is very practical, so share it with you as a reference and follow the editor to have a look.

View file encodings

You can view file encodings in Linux in the following ways:

1. You can view file encodings directly in Vim

: set fileencoding

The file encoding format can be displayed.

If you just want to view files in other encoding formats or want to solve the problem of garbled viewing files with Vim, you can use the

Add the following to the ~ / .vimrc file

Set encoding=utf-8 fileencodings=ucs-bom,utf-8,cp936

In this way, you can let vim automatically identify file encodings (you can automatically identify UTF-8 or GBK encoded files), which is actually an attempt according to the coding list provided by fileencodings. If you do not find a suitable encoding, open it with latin-1 (ASCII) coding.

File coding conversion

1. Convert file encoding directly in Vim, such as converting a file to utf-8 format

: set fileencoding=utf-8

2. Iconv conversion. The command format of iconv is as follows:

Iconv-f encoding-t encoding inputfile

For example, convert a UTF-8-encoded file to GBK-encoded file

Iconv-f GBK-t UTF-8 file1-o file2

Iconv-f gbk-t utf8 linux Common Command .txt > linux Common Command .txt.utf8

File name Encoding conversion:

When copying files from Linux to windows or from windows to Linux, sometimes the Chinese file name is garbled. The reason for this problem is that the Chinese coding of windows file name defaults to GBK, while the default file name encoding in Linux is UTF8, which leads to the problem of file name garbled due to inconsistent coding. To solve this problem, you need to transcode the file name.

A special tool convmv is provided in Linux for file name encoding conversion, which can convert file names from GBK to UTF-8 encoding or from UTF-8 to GBK.

First check to see if convmv is installed on your system, and use it if not:

Yum-y install convmv

Install.

Here's a look at the specific use of convmv:

Convmv-f Source Encoding-t New Encoding [option] File name

Common parameters:

-r Recursive processing subfolders

-- notest actually operates, please note that by default, files are not actually manipulated, but only experimented with.

-list displays all supported encodings

-- unescap can do some escaping, such as turning% 20 into a space

For example, we have a file name encoded by utf8, which is converted to GBK encoding. The command is as follows:

Convmv-f UTF-8-t GBK-- notest utf8 encoded file name

In this way, after the conversion, the "utf8-encoded file name" will be converted to GBK encoding (only the conversion of the file name encoding, the file content will not change)
