Yes, no problem here. I assume there must be some program in this
platform which can edit ASCII text and another one (or the same) to
convert text files between encodings. If not, just use the new port to
cross-compile such a program =)
Just a moment. Granted that everybody's favourite reference site is
unavailable today, but minimal Googling suggests that MUSIC/SP- which I
believe was Paul's OS of choice- supports web browsing etc.
I think we need a reality check from Paul here, in case EBCDIC operation
is mandated only by the emulator he was planning to use (whether I think
his choice is good is irrelevant- lets try to get things like character
set resolved before it causes any more sound and fury).
