Aaaarrrgggh!
(But is the tilde (what code point in what CCSID?) not what you want?)
Can you do *all* the transfers in binary until you get to z/OS, then use iconv
for the final conversion?
Principle of minal munging: that would get you a pristine copy on z/OS that
you can inspect/dump/experiment with and control the final conversion
And you'll still have the <CR><LF> nuisance to deal with.
All I know is what I can read on:
