isutf8

Check whether text files contain valid UTF-8.

TLDR

Check whether the specified files contain valid UTF-8

$ isutf8 [path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...]
copy


Print errors using multiple lines
$ isutf8 --verbose [path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...]
copy


Do not print anything to stdout, indicate the result merely with the exit code
$ isutf8 --quiet [path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...]
copy


Only print the names of the files containing invalid UTF-8
$ isutf8 --list [path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...]
copy


Same as --list but inverted, i.e., only print the names of the files containing valid UTF-8
$ isutf8 --invert [path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...]
copy
