Translates ISO-8859-1 files into UTF-8 files. Often you will observe ISO-8859-1 files which pretend to be UTF-8 but are not properly escaped to UTF-8. And Expat defaults to UTF-8 and often you will have ISO-8859-1 (ISO Latin 1) files to escape. Note that ISO-8859-1 is the first codepage of UNICODE, thus there is no real character translation. Usage: latin1-utf8 [dummyarg] Without dummyarg, hex escape entities are written instead of characters with high bit set, thus leading to ASCII 7 bit files. With any dummyarg, these characters are translated into their UTF-8 equivalent byte codes.
