README
lv (pager, grep, and iconv replacement) lv is a powerful file viewer like less. lv can decode and encode multilingual streams in many encodings, including ISO-8859, ISO-2022, EUC, SJIS, Big5, HZ, and Unicode. It recognizes multi-byte patterns in regular expressions, and can be run as "lgrep" to act as a grep replacement. In addition, lv can recognize ANSI escape sequences for text decoration (making it suitable for use as MANPAGER). lv can also be used as a replacement for iconv(1), by redirecting its standard output and using the -I and -O options to set the input and output encodings. Although it doesn't support all the features of iconv, lv will autodetect the input encoding (which iconv won't). lv also has one (possibly) unique feature: It can autodetect and convert or display multiple character encodings *within the same document*.
