Description
ebcdic is a Python package adding additional EBCDIC codecs for data exchange with legacy system. It works with Python 2.7 and Python 3.4+.
EBCDIC is short for Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code and is a family of character encodings that is mainly used on mainframe computers. There is no real point in using it unless you have to exchange data with legacy systems that still only support EBCDIC as character encoding.
