.SH NAME
translit \- transliterate text between various writing systems
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
translit \fB\-t\fR \fIname\fR \fB\-r\fR \fB\-i\fR \fIfile\fR \fB\-o\fR \fIfile\fR \-l \-v \-h
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBtranslit\fR transliterates \fBUTF\-8\fR encoded natural language text from one
writing system to another.
.PP
It utilizes the Perl module Lingua::Translit to accomplish this task and
follows the provided transliteration standards as strict as possible.
.PP
\&\fBtranslit\fR regards the following commandline switches:
.IP "\fB\-\-trans\fR, \fB\-t\fR \fIname\fR" 4
.IX Item "--trans, -t name"
Use the transliteration standard named \fIname\fR.
.IP "\fB\-\-reverse\fR, \fB\-r\fR" 4
.IX Item "--reverse, -r"
Transliterate in reverse direction.
.Sp
\&\fBNOTE\fR: Not every transliteration is capable of being reversed.
If unsure, have a look at the list of supported transliterations using the
\&\fB\-\-list\fR switch.
.IP "\fB\-\-infile\fR, \fB\-i\fR \fIFILE\fR" 4
.IX Item "--infile, -i FILE"
Read text from \fIFILE\fR. Defaults to STDIN.
.IP "\fB\-\-outfile\fR, \fB\-o\fR \fIFILE\fR" 4
.IX Item "--outfile, -o FILE"
Write the transliterated text to \fIFILE\fR. Defaults to STDOUT.
.IP "\fB\-\-list\fR, \fB\-l\fR" 4
.IX Item "--list, -l"
Print a list of supported transliterations showing their
