11 Supported encodings:
12 At the moment, there are classes for reading Beta Code, GreekKeys, and Unicode and for outputting Beta Code, precomposed Unicode (form C) and Unicode with combining diacriticals (form D).
13
14 How to use it:
15 The classes that do the work implement the Parser and Converter interfaces. These may be loaded and accessed by the TransCoder class. The following code snippet creates a TransCoder and uses it to transform a Greek text file written in GreekKeys to a Unicode string. The transcoder.jar file now includes a GUI form which can be used for testing the conversion of various font encodings. The .jar file is executable, so it should be possible to run it by double clicking on the icon or executing it from the command line (java -jar transcoder.jar).

18 TransCoder tc = new TransCoder("GreekKeys", "UnicodeC");
19 String result = tc.getString(new File("C:/temp/test.txt"));

29 String result = tc.getString(source);
