JFILTER

Current Version: 2.1; Released: May, 2002; Terms: GPL

JFILTER is a Scheme program which converts text among the JIS, EUC, and Shift-JIS Japanese character sets.
JFILTER was written by Dai INUKAI (GAF05426 @ nifty.ne.jp)

Quick Start

Obtain and install SCM or other Scheme Implementation.
Obtain and install the SLIB Scheme Library.
Create a subdirectory of `slib' named `jfilter'.
Obtain jfilter.scm (46k) and save it in `slib/jfilter/jfilter.scm'.
Create or append to `slib/sitecat' a line specifying the location of `jfilter.scm':
```
((jfilter . "/usr/local/lib/slib/jfilter/jfilter"))
```
Read the JFILTER manual in English (jfilter.info.gz, jfilter.texi) or Japanese (jfilterj.info.gz, jfilter.texi).

Install the jfilt or JFILT.BAT SCM script to use jfilter from the command-line.

Usage: jfilt input-file output-file jcode

  Converts Japanese text in INPUT-FILE to format JCODE and writes
	result to OUTPUT-FILE.  JCODE can be jis, eucj, or sjis.

Install the jtype or JTYPE.BAT SCM script to print the name of the Japanese coding system used in a file.

Usage: jtype input-file [c-length]

  Categorizes the Japanese coding system used in INPUT-FILE.  JTYPE
	prints jis, eucj, or sjis, bin, or ascii.  If optional C-LENGTH
	argument is given, up to C-LENGTH characters are checked
	(default is 5000).
