A file utility to convert between BIG-5 and GB codes is now available for ftp
on june.cs.washington.edu:pub/yeung/HCu.tar.Z

It is the Unix version of the Mac program HC 1.2 (Hanzi Converter).

`HC' converts BIG-5 codes into GB codes (with high bit set),
and vice versa. BIG-5 is a popular hanzi code used in Taiwan,
whereas GB (GuoBiao) is Mainland China's national standard.
GB code (with high bit set) is adopted widely in many systems,
such as CCDOS and Macintosh Chinese Operating System 6.0.3.
