If you read 56 bits you will be reading 8 bytes in 7-bit mode.
But you will also be reading 7 bytes in 8-bit mode.
So by reading 7 Ascii characters at a time out of your stream/file, you
should be able to re-chunk them into 8 characters by prepending a bit 0 on
the front of each 7-bit byte.

This sounds like a job for a quick perl routine.
Read the file in byte by byte, and AND it with 127, then write it
out byte by byte to a new file.

No George this will not work.

I understand the 7 bit method your talking about. But if you can
see the values in Vt100 term type, it's only stripping off the
8th bit? vs pushing the 8th bit to the front of the next byte?

Hi all,
I am trying to read a Unix file from and old aix machine. The people who
sent it will not bend in how they sent it.
What I got was in binary format so I used 'od' to convert it to ascii. When
I tried to cat the file before trying to READSEQ records it looked like
gibberish!

was the original file in EBCDIC? otherwise why convert it to ascii?
Is it a directory structure written out as a binary file? Will cpio
read the file?

Hi Roy,
What you need to do is to add a line feed LF char(10) to your carriage
returns char(13).
This can either be done at unix level by cat file | tr '\l' '\l\015' file2
(15 being the octal equivalent of 13)
or
programatically by
CHANGE(RECORD,CHAR(13),CHAR(10):CHAR(13),-1)
I don't have an AIX
If the binary file it truly 7 bit, try dos2unix -c 7bit master
newfile, then see if you can cat newfile.
