Al, there is an easy way to convert a save file to a physical file.  You 
can write a simple RPG program that reads a program described 528 byte 
record from one file and writes another 528 byte record to another file.  
Then, run the RPG program.

Another way to do it without compilers is to write a REXX procedure and 
override STDIN and STDOUT.  This is about 10 lines of programming and can 
be stored in a simple procedure, executed by STRREXPRC.  E-mail direct if 
you require this.
