Check out the Unix command dd(1). It has some capability for converting EBCDIC to ASCII and vice versa. Be aware, however, that there isn't one EBCDIC coding scheme. I don't remember the details of the differences between different EBCDIC encodings. You may want to investigate this before converting all your data.
