- Description:
- mapchan - A program which allows you to transform the input and output
of a terminal (including a serial port terminal). It is useful when:
* You need to work with various encodings on various virtual
terminals
* You have an assortment of terminals, not one of which supports
your favorite encoding.
This software is an incomplete implementation of the functionality of
the utility "mapchan" of SCO Unix.
