How is possible to convert an HEX string to a EBCDIC-US string in ruby? Is there any library? I looked for and I didn't find anything. The only other way that I have in mind is to build a conversion table from hex to ebcdic but are 255 chars. Any suggestion or idea? I using Mavericks and I tried iconv but with 

Encoding.name_list

I don't have EBCDIC-US

    Did you see [this thread](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4718324/how-do-i-do-ascii-to-ebcdic-translation-in-ruby)? – mralexlau Apr 08 '14 at 16:32

    You might not need `EBCDIC-US` if `ISO-8859-1` works for you. Also, ensure that any conversion is **only** applied to text and not to any possible embedded BCD "packed" values or binary values. – user2338816 Apr 12 '14 at 11:48
  • You could try the IBM037-encoding. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27913407/ebcdic-to-ascii-in-ruby – knut Nov 22 '20 at 17:39
