8.1 Usual ASCII

This charset is available in Recode under the name ASCII. In fact, its true name is ANSI_X3.4-1968 as per RFC 1345 , accepted aliases being ANSI_X3.4-1986, ASCII, IBM367, ISO646-US, ISO_646.irv:1991, US-ASCII, cp367, iso-ir-6 and us. The shortest way of specifying it in Recode is us.

This documentation used to include ASCII tables. They have been removed since the recode program can now recreate these easily:

     recode -lf us                   for commented ASCII
     recode -ld us                   for concise decimal table
     recode -lo us                   for concise octal table
     recode -lh us                   for concise hexadecimal table
