If there's one thing I'd wish for, it would be for a standard encoding
of binary 36-bit data into octets. FTP uses high density format.
Magtapes use core dump format. ITS files and itstar use the evacuate
format. Then there's the ANSI-ASCII/KERMIT-36 5x7+1 format. Let's not
bring up disk images or 7-track and paper tapes.
Converting between all these is a small cottage industry.
