Thank you, good to know the link and facts.

echo -1.47666 34.56861 | cs2cs -f %.10f "Arc 1960" WGS84
-1.4792594337   34.5693813904 0.0000000000

echo -1.47666 34.56861 | cs2cs 'epsg:4210' 'epsg:4326' -f "%.10f"
-1.4792594337   34.5693813904 0.0000000000

I am getting so far quite same result.

Jean
