I sometimes need to open text files that are encoded in EUC-KR.
man gedit
gives:
--encoding Set the character encoding to be used for opening the files listed on the command line.
This can be used to open specific files with the desired encoding:
gedit --encoding euc-kr readme.txt
However, each file to be opened requires a similar command to be typed.
I can run iconv
on the file(s), but then I have to deal with different file versions.
Do I have better options for dealing with non-utf8 text files?
