Ah, OK. Makes more sense now then. Why do you have IBM assembler code down on a Unix platform? Can't use mainframe utilities to look at these files? Do the eyecatchers follow some sort of known format? If so, it might be easier to write some C code and translate this yourself?
We have some of these types of issues under CICS, where logstreams are produced that are part EBCDIC and part ASCII. We have code that produces the below dump type format, but translates the ASCII part (on the mainframe) for readability.

It is still ebcdic. There are character eyecatchers that I need to display properly, just not here. There is a space (x'40') in there that doesn't display as a space. ----- Original Message ---- From: "Evans, Kevin R" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Sent: Wednesday, April 2, 2008 2:55:15 AM Subject: Re: readelf/objdump displays Doesn't look like much EBCDIC there. The start looks like z/OS assembler code.

As you can see, the display is showing ASCII interpretations of the hex code. This is assembled as 390.

What are the exact commands you're issuing, and what results are you expecting?
