\fB\-\-version\fR, \fB\-V\fR
Print program version.
+.SH ENCODINGS
+The values permitted for \fI\-\-from\-code\fP and \fI\-\-to\-code\fP can be listed
+by the \fBiconv \-\-list\fP command, and all combinations of the listed values are
+supported. Furthermore the following two suffixes are supported:
+.TP
+//TRANSLIT
+When the string "//TRANSLIT" is appended to \fI\-\-to\-code\fP, transliteration
+is activated.
+This means that when a character cannot be represented in the
+target character set, it can be approximated through one or several
+similarly looking characters.
+.TP
+//IGNORE
+When the string "//IGNORE" is appended to \fI\-\-to\-code\fP, characters that
+cannot be represented in the target character set will be silently discarded.
