Name

gromox−abktconv — Utility for converting between ABKT and JSON

Synopsis

gromox−abktconv {−b|−j} [−gw?] [−c cpid]

Description

gromox−abktconv can be used to convert between data streams as specified in MS-OXOABKT and a textual representation. It reads and writes to standard input and output, respectively.

Options

−b

Produce type-1 ABKT from JSON.

−c cpid

When converting to ABKT (−b), convert strings to the given codepage and emit them as 8-bit strings.

−g

When converting to ABKT (−b), emit extraneous gaps in the data stream to mimic what Exchange would do. Without −g, the ABKT stream will have no unnecessary gaps.

−j

Produce JSON from ABKT type-1 or type-2.

−w

When converting to ABKT (−b), emit strings in UTF-16 form. This is the default.

−?

Display option summary.
