Hi,

Thanks for your quick answer. The output of this command is :

ICONV_OPEN(3)              Linux Programmer's Manual            
ICONV_OPEN(3)



NAME
       iconv_open - allocate descriptor for character set conversion

SYNOPSIS
       #include <iconv.h>

       iconv_t iconv_open(const char *tocode, const char *fromcode);

DESCRIPTION
       The  iconv_open()  function  allocates a conversion descriptor
suitable
       for converting byte sequences from character encoding fromcode to
char‐
       acter encoding tocode.

       The values permitted for fromcode and tocode and the supported
combina‐
       tions are system-dependent.  For the GNU C library, the permitted 
val‐
       ues are listed by the iconv --list command, and all combinations of
the
       listed values are supported.  Furthermore the GNU C library and the
GNU
       libiconv library support the following two suffixes:

       //TRANSLIT
              When the string "//TRANSLIT" is appended to tocode,
translitera‐
              tion is activated.  This means that when a character  cannot 
be
              represented  in the target character set, it can be
approximated
              through one or several similarly looking characters.

       //IGNORE
              When the string "//IGNORE" is  appended  to  tocode, 
characters
              that  cannot  be represented in the target character set will
be
              silently discarded.

       The resulting conversion descriptor can be used with iconv(3) any 
num‐
       ber of times.  It remains valid until deallocated using
iconv_close(3).

       A  conversion  descriptor  contains a conversion state.  After
creation
       using iconv_open(), the state is in the initial state.  Using 
iconv(3)
       modifies  the descriptor's conversion state.  (This implies that a
con‐
       version descriptor can not be used in multiple threads
simultaneously.)
       To bring the state back to the initial state, use iconv(3) with NULL
as
       inbuf argument.

RETURN VALUE
       The  iconv_open()  function  returns  a  freshly  allocated 
conversion
       descriptor.  In case of error, it sets errno and returns (iconv_t)
-1.

ERRORS
       The following error can occur, among others:

       EINVAL The  conversion  from fromcode to tocode is not supported by
the
              implementation.

VERSIONS
       This function is available in glibc since version 2.1.

CONFORMING TO
       UNIX98, POSIX.1-2001.
