And how many other utilities will read a file offloaded by IEBCOPY?

(Actually, somewhat unwarranted rhetoric.  I know a few: CMS PIPELINES,
ISPF/VM, and (IIRC) XMIT Manager.)

But for maximum portability, I'd suggest copying it to a UNIX directory
and archiving that (selectively) with Info-Zip or pax.

If you want it human-readable, there's IEBUPDTE, with restrictions.
