[comp.unix.ultrix] Need IBM to DECstation data conversion

elwin@hubcap.clemson.edu (lawrence brown) (02/19/91)

I have some data from a tape that was created by a fortran on an
IBM somewhere in Europe (it's data from the COS-B satellite).
It is in the form of fixed length records where, for example,
the first 4 bytes are a 4-byte integer, the next 8 bytes are a
double precision real number, etc.  Does anyone out there in
netland have code (pieces of code, suggested utilities,
whatever) with which to change this into  either ASCII or,
better yet, data apropriate to fortran programs running on a
DECstation3100 (Ultrix,RISC,IEEE data standard).  Thanks.
