Depends on what OS are you using... For Linux and moft you can use a shell binary. Im sure there's more than one linux console or command line tools for both linux and PC - google it. For Mac, you can use Rinaldi's ReplaceCharSet XFCN (http://perso.wanadoo.fr/frederic.rinaldi/) but you'll have to build an ascii char table and one for EBCDIC.
