Personally I don't need much of EBCDIC; only four most common variations. I've requested a pull (#112).

I'd like EBCDIC support too! Is that the requisite couple of people? :)

[fabienjuif]

I would need it too ❤️

Add my vote for EBCDIC.

[andemores]

Add my vote too. Is it supported now ?

+1 -- would love to see EBDIC support.

[matthiasbalke]

+1 for EBCDIC support

Can I understand what is required for EBCDIC support? i.e., what's the format of the conversion files that are required, or whatever the need is? If that was clear, we could definitely community-source this support.

I will need this encoding as well...

EBCDIC is one of the 3 encodings accepted for flat files by the french revenue service for instance The other 2 are ASCII (!) and ISO 8859-15

Isn't the referenced PR handling the conversion "as necessary" already?
