#
#     These procedures assist in use of the ASCII and EBCDIC character sets,
#     regardless of the native character set of the host:
#
#     Ascii128()    Returns a 128-byte string of ASCII characters in
#                   numerical order.  Ascii128() should be used in
#                   preference to &ascii for applications which might
#                   run on an EBCDIC host.
#
#     Ascii256()    Returns a 256-byte string representing the 256-
#                   character ASCII character set.  On an EBCDIC host,
#                   the order of the second 128 characters is essentially
#                   arbitrary.
#
#     Ebcdic()      Returns a 256-byte string of EBCDIC characters in
#                   numerical order.
#
#     AsciiChar(i)  Returns the character whose ASCII representation is i.
#
#     AsciiOrd(c)   Returns the position of the character c in the ASCII
#                   collating sequence.
#
#     EbcdicChar(i) Returns the character whose EBCDIC representation is i.
#
#     EbcdicOrd(c)  Returns the position of the character c in the EBCDIC
#                   collating sequence.
#
#     MapEtoA(s)    Maps a string of EBCDIC characters to the equivalent
#                   ASCII string, according to a plausible mapping.
#
#     MapAtoE(s)    Maps a string of ASCII characters to the equivalent
#                   EBCDIC string, according to a plausible mapping.
#
#     Control(c)    Returns the "control character" associated with the
#                   character c.  On an EBCDIC host, with $ representing
#                   an EBCDIC character with no 7-bit ASCII equivalent,
#                   Control("$") may not be identical to "\^$", as
#                   translated by ICONT (and neither result is particularly
#                   meaningful).
#

#
#   Notes:
#
#       There is no universally accepted mapping between ASCII and EBCDIC.
#       See the SHARE Inc. publication "ASCII and EBCDIC Character Set and
#       Code Issues in Systems Application Architecture" for more information
#       than you would ever want to have on this subject.
#
#       The mapping of the first 128 characters defined below by Ascii128()
#       is the most commonly accepted mapping, even though it probably
#       is not exactly like the mapping used by your favorite PC to mainframe
#       file transfer utility.  The mapping of the second 128 characters
#       is quite arbitrary, except that where an alternate translation of
#       ASCII char(n) is popular, this translation is assigned to
#       Ascii256()[n+129].
#
#       The behavior of all functions in this package is controlled solely
#       by the string literals in the _Eascii() procedure.  Therefore you
#       may modify these strings to taste, and still obtain consistent
#       results, provided that each character appears exactly once in the
#       result of _Eascii().
#
#       Yes, it's really true that the EBCDIC "\n" (NL, char(16r15)) is not
#       the same as "\l" (LF, char(16r25)).  How can that be?  "Don't blame
#       me, man, I didn't do it."
