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!

. Are they
sending you packed data? I used to have to read the records using
OSBREAD and then do an OCONV to unpack them.

Finally got the file in the right format!
Used Unix utility 'od' to convert from binary to ascii but in 7 bit
Used Unix 'strings' command to convert line endings
Used 'flip' command in ubuntu to convert to 8 bit file (needed to ftp file
to ubuntu machine and back.
Wow! Glad that's over.
I really miss the GFEs and Ultimate's answer to everything Do a cold
start and let us know if it happens again
