[net.unix-wizards] BCD

govern@houxf.UUCP (08/13/83)

I recently got a bunch of FORTRAN programs on tape, and want to put
them on UNIX.  Most of them are in EBCDIC, and the dd conv=ascii
worked just fine for reading them, but some of the programs claimed
to be in BCD.  Doing dd conv=ascii got most of the characters right,
but some (eg ()) didn't make it.

Does anyone have a table of the BCD code, or a program to convert it
to ascii, or ebcdic, or whatever?
