I wish to trace a large nightly run of EBCDIC data. However, when I take
capture data, it is formatted as ASCII, and I have to go to Analyze-Follow
TCP Stream, and clicking on EBCDIC seems to take forever, and often hangs
my PC on files that are less than 2 MB. My nightly run could be up to 500MB
of trace data. Is there a way to automatically save the data as EBCDIC
instead of ASCII? Or is there a way where the data could be saved in a
format where an ASCII_EBCDIC conversion tool (like dd) could be run against
it instead?

Any one have any ideas? Help.
