          documentations are placed in the directory.

     src/lib/CSConv/iconv

          test programs are placed in the directory.


HOW TO ADD CONVERTERS

     To add converters to csconv, follow this procedure.


     1. edit src/lib/CSConv/csconv.conf and src/lib/CSConv/encoding.norm
        to insert definitions for the new converter.

     2. Create the converter in src/lib/CSConv/converter.

     3. Edit src/lib/CSConv/converter/Makefile.in to compile the
        converter.

     4. If you build internal encoding converter (linked with other
        converters), edit src/lib/CSConv/converter/csc_entry_internal.c
        and src/lib/CSConv/converter/csc_entry_internal.h to insert a
        definition of the converter.
