Modula-2 development systems hosted on EBCDIC based computer systems without ASCII or UTF-8 support are required to provide a transliteration utility which must be external to the compiler and convert between EBCDIC and 7-bit ASCII encoded source text. At minimum, the `EBCDIC500 encoding shall be supported by any such transliteration utility. to:
