Usual ASCII

This charset is available in recode under the name ascii. In fact, it's 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 recode can now recreate these (and a lot of others) easily:

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