tcs sounds like the little brother of Gnu recode, which handles more 
charsets than most people can even imagine could exist; 281, in the 
version I have.

William, what do you want to do with these 'junk' characters? It's 
getting harder and harder to work in just plain ASCII these days. It 
just doesn't support the glyphs that people need to use.
