I will be reading a file (file_in) with name & address and a word that I may need to convert. Running unix on a pc, this would be easy. But on my Solaris I am not getting the desired results.
If my file_in contains:
and my
conversion file is:
and I want to create:
which after a whole bunch more programming is ftp'd to my pc network for printing.
I know how to figure this out with awk, etc.. My problem is when I ftp that conversion file to my unix, I end up with wrong characters. In fact, I end up with something like "V\202\hicle" when I vi the file. (Which is correct since the 202 in octal is the e with accent.)
But, this \202 representation garbles during processing and I end up with strange data at the end.
So, I am looking for tricks or hints for my Solaris unix (bash or ksh) to deal with extended characters.
Thanks in advance.

mbk_work_lib
MBK_WORK_LIB(1) MBK ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES MBK_WORK_LIB(1)NAME
MBK_WORK_LIB - define the mbk working directory
SYNOPSYS
c-shell running
setenv MBK_WORK_LIB unix path
ORIGIN
This software belongs to the ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM developed by the ASIM team at LIP6 laboratory of Universite Pierre et Marie CURIE, in
Paris, France.
Web : http://asim.lip6.fr/recherche/alliance/
E-mail : alliance-users@asim.lip6.fr
DESCRIPTION
MBK_WORK_LIB sets the directory where are saved the results of an invocation of mbk or genlib. This directory is considered to be, from an
mbk point of view, read and write.
Also, when a file is searched for reading, the first directory to be looked at is the MBK_WORK_LIB, and then the one defined in
MBK_CATA_LIB(1).
The unix path argument must be a actually accessible path on your host machine.
ERRORS
"mbk_fopen : can't open file 'unix_path/file.xx'"
This occurs when either the unix path is irrelevent, or when the file doesn't exist if it is open for reading, or when you don't
have the right on the file or directory while trying to write it.
EXAMPLE
setenv MBK_WORK_LIB ~fred/crechan/uom
SEE ALSO mbk(3), genlib(1), MBK_CATA_LIB(1).
