That is already sortof existing. You can use LBR to stuff any files
into a library, and then I've written something similar to
uuencode/uudecode that can process any file, creating a text file,
which is the only universal file format. :-)


Which text format, EBCDIC or ASCII? :P


The joke was more aimed at you stating that text files are the one
universal format, which of course they are, until you meet IBM.

I know. And my point was that they really are the universal format. To the point that ftp provides the mapping needed for all kind of systems including IBM ones.

But only for text files...
