Conversion for Traditional Chinese Character Codes

The routines listed in the following table perform character-based code conversion on the CNS-11643 character set. They convert characters in the set between CNS-11643, EUC, and Big5 formats. To use these routines, the library hle must be linked using the C compiler option -lhle. For more information, see the hconv(3x) man page.
