The rux is a simple utility for texts recoding from one encoding to another. At present time several the most popular Cyrillic code pages such as koi8-r, cp866, cp1251, iso8859-5, mac-cyrillic and utf-8 (as source only) are supported. Also rux gives the opportunity to recode box- drawing characters, which exists in some Cyrillic code pages, to replace them by their non-graphic analogues ('-', '+', etc.).
