Covert Files' Encode From GBK to UTF-8 in One Time

To convert file encode from GBK to UTF-8

find <dir> -type d -exec mkdir -p <utf dir>/{} \;
find <dir> -type f -exec bash -c "iconv -f GBK -t UTF-8 {} > <utf dir>/{}" \;

Above, iconv -f GBK -t UTF-8 <file> > <out file> can convert encode. In Linux, option -o <out file> can instead by >.

{} in the find -exec command represents each line of the output of find.
