Display EBCDIC as Characters

LouPelagalli · #1 (**permalink**) 08-09-2005

Hi,

Does anybody have a command to share that will display EBCDIC files as character?

I have od -x -A d
which will display hex as follows
f0f1 f4f3 f0f0 f0f0 f0f6 f1f4 f6f3 f3f0
f3f9 f8f3 f1f6 f8f2 f860 d1e4 d360 f2f0
f0f5 4000 0000 5014 8c00 0000 0000 0c00
0000 0000 0d00 0000 5014 8c00 0000 1702
3c00 0000 6717 1cf2 f0c1 4040 4040 4040
0af0 f1f4 f3f0 f0f0 f0f0 f6f1 f4f6 f3f3
f0f3 f9f8 f3f1 f6f8 f2f8 60d1 e4d3 60f2
f0f0 f540 0000 0050 148c 0000 0000 000c
0000 0000 000d 0000 0050 148c 0000 0017
023c 0000 0067 171c f2f0 c140 4040 4040

but it would sure be nice to view it as characters.

Thank You in Advance for Your Help,

Lou
