shell - How can I find encoding of a file via a script on Linux?

I need to find the encoding of all files that are placed in a directory. Is there a way to find the encoding used?

The file command is not able to do this.

The encoding that is of interest to me is ISO?8859-1. If the encoding is anything else, I want to move the file to another directory.

It sounds like you're looking for enca. It can guess and even convert between encodings. Just look at the man page.

Or, failing that, use file -i (Linux) or file -I (OS?X). That will output MIME-type information for the file, which will also include the character-set encoding. I found a man-page for it, too :)
