EIR.ENTRY2: data or International Language text
I did not use any of the flags and used the /etc/magic.cat by default. Is this what you were looking for Corona?

I am running this code
Code:
#!/bin/bash
oldifs=$IFS
while read DATA
do
echo $DATA
for i in {1..10}
do
echo "Character ="${DATA:$i:1}
printf "Decimal =%d\n" "'$(echo ${DATA:$i:1})"
printf "Octal =%o\n" "'$(echo ${DATA:$i:1})"
printf "Hexidecimal=%x\n" "'$(echo ${DATA:$i:1})"
echo
done
done < ./EIR.ENTRY2
And getting this return
Code:
FRýSCREENýBENEFIT
Character =R
Decimal =82
Octal =122
Hexidecimal=52
Character =ý
Decimal =253
Octal =375
Hexidecimal=fd
Character =S
Decimal =83
Octal =123
Hexidecimal=53
Character =C
Decimal =67
Octal =103
Hexidecimal=43
Character =R
Decimal =82
Octal =122
Hexidecimal=52
Character =E
Decimal =69
Octal =105
Hexidecimal=45
Character =E
Decimal =69
Octal =105
Hexidecimal=45
Character =N
Decimal =78
Octal =116
Hexidecimal=4e
Character =ý
Decimal =253
Octal =375
Hexidecimal=fd
Character =B
Decimal =66
Octal =102
Hexidecimal=42
How do I split my lines based on
Decimal =253
Octal =375
Hexidecimal=fd ??
I probably did this the hard way, but I iterated through the string 1 character at a time and added that character to a different string. When the character was 253 I added a ~ instead of Character 253. Very clunky, but it got the job done.

It does indeed seem to be a single character. Whether it's ý or whatever in your character set doesn't matter too much now that we've nailed that down.
Knowing that, you can deal with it many ways.
Code:
$ tr '\375' '~' < ~/EIR.TXT | while IFS="~" read A B C ; do echo $A ; done
EIR.ENTRY
FI.EIR
$ awk -F'\375' '{ print $1 }' EIR.TXT
EIR.ENTRY
FI.EIR
$ IFS="$(printf "\375")"
$ while read A B C < ~/EIR.TXT ; do echo $A ; done
EIR.ENTRY
