Emacs: how to venvert documents to UTF-8 codepage

[Ryuichiro Hara]

On emacs you can do that after installing "mule-ucs" package.
\C-x \C-m f with lots of encoding choices.

On command line, one that can do that is "lv", among other choices.
see man page of it.

I myself uses japanese specific one, "nkf". That wouldn't help you a lot.
