the package needs to support UTF-8 #4
Description
The package traditionally has translated between ASCII and EBCDIC as ISO-8859-1 and CP1047.
On the Unix/Linux side, systems have moved away from 256-byte code pages and toward UTF-8.
The package needs to support translation of CP1047 into UTF-8.
Addressing other EBCDIC code pages will be raised as a separate issue.
