Hi Glynn,
This didn't work for me. Although I've succesfully installed the package
I'm just trying to be precise.

I get this error message:
1660+0 records in
1660+0 records out
iconv: illegal input sequence at position 0
I've looked at the manpages of dd and iconv but could not get any wiser.
If run with skip=0 the text is printed to standard out, ie in my case my
xterm.
Greetings Sjors
