What is the fastest, easiest tool or method to convert text files between character sets?
Specifically, I need to convert from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-15 and vice versa.
Everything goes: one-liners in your favorite scripting language, command-line tools or other utilities for OS, web sites, etc.
Best solutions so far:

Hey all, my Computational Science course this semester is entirely in Java. I was wondering if there was a good/preferred set of tools to use in ubuntu. Currently I use gedit with a terminal running in the bottom, but I'd like an API browser.
I've considered Eclipse, but it seems to bloated and unfriendly for quick programs.

Ok, so I am finally trying out FirePHP.
I installed it and restarted firefox, enabled firebug for my localhost, moved the demo oo.php file that comes with the download into an IIS virtual directory, changed the include path, removed the apache_request_headers() call since I am running IIS and the only output I see?

We have 100s of websites which were developed in asp, .net and java... and we are paying lot of money for an external agency to do a penetration testing for our sites to check for security loop holes.

or.. are there any tehnical articles which can help me develop this tool.

I have a small to medium project that is in C++/CLI. I really hate the syntax extensions of C++/CLI and I would prefer to work in C#. Is there a tool that does a decent job of translating one to the other?
EDIT: When I said Managed c++ before I apparently meant c++/CLI

I'm looking for a code review tool that has something like Word's review tools.
I would like the ability to add a note in the side bar that references a specific block of code as well as to have portions of the code that are changed tracked so that someone else can open the file later and accept/reject the changes. If it were integrate...
If I attempt to connect to Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard's built in vnc server at a low color depth from Windows, the client bombs after connecting. It only works when I set it to the highest color depth. I've tried with at least 3 windows VNC clients. Any ideas? There some setting I can set in Mac OS X?

I notice that if I write
Expect.Call(delegate { obj.Method(null); }).IgnoreArguments().Do(
new Action(() => {Console.Write("executed");throw new Exception(); }));
Provided that the method does run, MbUnit will recieve the "executed" message but will not detect an exception being thrown. Does anyone know why that is so? Is this som...
I am looking for a tool which will take an XML instance document and output a corresponding XSD schema.
I certainly recognize that the generated XSD schema will be limited when compared to creating a schema by hand (it probably won't handle optional or repeating elements, or data constraints), but it could at least serve as a quick star...
I'm trying to figure out the best way to parse a GE Logician MEL trace file to make it easier to read.
It has segments like

We are using PowerDesigner at work for database modelling. But there is a hell of a price tag on that piece of software. And frankly, all I use is physical diagrams for MS SQL, which is about 1% of what PD knows.
Are there any good alternatives? I know about Visio and MS SQL Diagrams, but looking for other options.

If I have

I have tried

I am looking for a tool for regression testing a suite of equipment we are building.
The current concept is that you create an input file (text/csv) to the tool specifying inputs to the system under test. The tool then captures the outputs from the system and records the inputs and outputs to an output file.
The output is in the same ...
I got to thinking about how annoying messy merges can be and was wondering if there are any language aware diffing tools that go beyond the typical language-aware features of comment skipping and case sensitivity. Seems like the diffing engine could infer a lot more if it were aware of the syntax of what it is diffing instead of just tr...
Where as a developer do like to you keep your code snippets, links, checklists, final solutions to problems etc?
I've fooled with Google Notebook, MS Onenote, TreePad, textfiles, and Evernote a bit (currently leaning toward Evernote). All have pros and cons but none seem to be really suited to developers. Is anyone super-happy with ...
Having repeatable automated tests of web applications lets one detect regression with very little ongoing labour cost (the main cost being writing the test scripts up front). However there seems to be a bewildering array of such tools available. We used eValid in the past but now use Sahi.
Ideally we'd like a tool for which IT-literate ...
