Also, OpenVM sports an 'iconv' command.
help oshell iconv
Not clear from that doc if it handles the multibyte encodings, unless
that is implied by POSIX compliance.
It would be really nifty to have a Pipelines stage that wraps OpenVM
commands. So many of them are filters, and a lot of shell scripts
customers and users create are filters, that this would be *really*
handy.
