SJ2U is a simple Tracker add-on to convert Shift-JIS encoded
Japanese text files to UTF-8 encoded. Just put the SJ2U file
in your /home/config/add-ons/Tracker folder, and right-click
on your source Shift-JIS files, then select SJ2U from Add-Ons
sub menu.

You can select a number of files at a time to feed them to this
add-on, and it converts each of them successively.
The converted files are named like xxxx.utf8 where xxxx is the
original file name.
You can not select folders to recursively convert its contents.
The program does not look inside folders at all.

It just uses a BeOS built-in command "xtou" to do the job.
It gives -n flag so that newline codes are converted properly.

This is a freeware.
Have fun!
