       -S <Unicode:ASCII>
              Define  a  custom  substitution.  The  argument  should consist 
of the Unicode codepoint to be
              replaced followed by the ASCII code of the character to be used 
as replacement, separated by a
              colon.  If  no  ASCII code follows the colon, the specified 
Unicode character will be deleted.
              The code values may be in hexadecimal, octal, or decimal 
following the usual  conventions  (to
              be  precise,those  of  strtoul(3)).   This  option may be 
repeated as many times as desired to
              define multiple substitutions.

Well, you should add some examples, because the strtoul(3) man page has
none, and uni2ascii -S 0x2033:x or -S U+2033:x etc. etc. all just give
uni2ascii: x is ill-formed.

Oh, I get it: -S 0x2033:0x44

OK, please add examples else the common man won't get it.

Also note there that -S can be combined with other options like -B.

Furthermore, the wording makes one think one can somehow do
-S 0x2033:0x27 -S 0x2033:0x27 to get two apostrophes for DOUBLE PRIME.
However, you give no way to the user of defining multi-character sequences!
