I want to run a program in java, which needs to understand utf8
encoding, when i run from the command line the conversion of text files
take place through ANSI encoding thats why I dont get the desired
output. I need to basically translate text files dealing in Hindi,
Bengali( Indic Languages).

TIA

Then you need to look at the InputStreamReader and OutputStreamWriter
classes where you can specfy the translation between bytes and characters.
