HanzConvert is a utility to convert Chinese text files between UTF-8, GB18030 and BIG-5 encodings. It can detect encoding of input files automatically, and it's also support simplified or traditional output characters with output encodings of UTF-8 and GB18030. The simplified and traditional characters converting algorithm is based on words rather than characters, so it's more accurate.
----------------- Usage ------------------
1. Add file by click "Add Files" or "Add Folder" button, drag files to main window or dock icon.
2. Set encodings, character set and output folder;
3. Click "Convert" button to start。
