Hello,

I've gone on a quest for the encoding for a certain piece of text. After much painstaking searches I think the encoding might be (like) EBCDIC, but I cannot find any EBCDIC handling code in pike. Is there any conversion method available?

This, by the way, is the current translation, put together by sniffing networktraffic of a legacy translating package (not pike). If you think this is something other than EBCDIC, please let me know:

templine=replace(templine,({"\xc1","\xc2","\x43","\xc4","\x45","\x46","\xC7","\xc8","\x49","\x4a","\xcb","\x4c","\xcd","\xce","\x4f","\xd0","\x51","\x52","\xd3","\x54","\xd5","\xd6","\x57","\x58","\xd9","\xda"}),
........................................................................................({"A"...........,"B".... ,"C"...........,"D".... ,"E"...........,"F".... ,"G"...........,"H".... ,"I"...........,"J".... ,"K"...........,"L".... ,"M"...........,"N".... ,"O"...........,"P".... ,"Q"...........,"R".... ,"S"...........,"T".... ,"U"...........,"V".... ,"W"...........,"X".... ,"Y"...........,"Z"}));
................templine=replace(templine,({"\x61","\x62","\xE3","\x64","\xE5","\xE6","\x67","\x68","\xE9","\xEa","\x6b","\xEc","\x6d","\x6e","\xef","\x70","\xF1","\xF2","\x73","\xf4","\xf5","\x76","\xf7","\xf8","\x79","\x7a"}),
................................................................  ({"a".........,"b".... ,"c"...........,"d".... ,"e"...........,"f".... ,"g"...........,"h".... ,"i"...........,"j".... ,"k"...........,"l".... ,"m"...........,"n".... ,"o"...........,"p".... ,"q"...........,"r".... ,"s"...........,"t".... ,"u"...........,"v".... ,"w"...........,"x".... ,"y"...........,"z"}));

According to the person who put this list together this translation works.
