I am having a problem with using the 'dd' command on an EDCDIC file. The conversion looks fine except that at the end of each record is a funny 'Z' (once it is converted, this character may have been added by the mainframe or on copying the file to the SUn machine ?).
I would like to process this file and drop the last character before running it through the 'dd' command. My question is, what command can i use that will allow me to drop the last byte in a record? many thanks Joan _______________________________________________ Solaris-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.filibeto.org/mailman/listinfo/solaris-users
