With "type e", there is no translation. If you are using stream mode (mode s), then \n (0x15, IIRC) is inserted at the end of each record. If you are using block mode (mode b), then LRECL/BLKSIZE data is transferred with each logical record and \n is not used. If you use the subcommand "ebcdic", the "type e" and "mode b" subcommands will be issued for you.
