Description: filename encoding conversion tool
convmv can convert a single filename, a directory tree or all files
on a filesystem to a different encoding. It only converts the
encoding of filenames, not files contents. A special feature of
convmv is that it also takes care of symlinks: the encoding of the
symlink's target will be converted if the symlink itself is being
converted.
.
It is also possible to convert directories to UTF-8 which are already
partially UTF-8 encoded.
