I am looking for a library function to convert ascii to ebcdic, and/or
ebcdic to ascii. For example, '0' = 0x30 in ascii, 0xf0 in ebcdic.

I see the character maps in /usr/share/i18n/charmap, but have not found
any routines. Aix has a function called iconv. 

I could build my own conversion tables, but that is a last resort.

Any ideas?

TIA
