  convmv is meant to help convert a single filename, a directory tree and the
  contained files or a whole filesystem into a different encoding. It just
  converts the filenames, not the content of the files. A special feature of
  convmv is that it also takes care of symlinks, also converts the symlink target
  pointer in case the symlink target is being converted, too.

  All this comes in very handy when one wants to switch over from old 8-bit
  locales to UTF-8 locales. It is also possible to convert directories to UTF-8
  which are already partly UTF-8 encoded. convmv is able to detect if certain
  files are UTF-8 encoded and will skip them by default. To turn this smartness
  off use the --nosmart switch.
