Re: sftp from IBMi to remote server

Write a script that converts the file first using /QOpenSys/bin/iconv to
convert the file to the desired character set.

Watch out, the /QOpenSys/pkgs/bin/iconv is Gnu iconv and doesn't know
EBCDIC.

From memory, the incantation would be like /QOpenSys/bin/iconv -f ISO8859-1
-t IBM-037 myfile.ascii > myfile.ebcdic

The list of char encodings supported by iconv can be had via
/QOpenSys/bin/iconv
-l
