looking for a program

\_ I'm looking for a program that will take either a decimal, hex or octal
\_ input and give me its decimal, hex or octal output. Can anyone tell me what
\_ I'm looking for?

perl? Bah. Use that on big numbers. For small numbers, RTFM.

In particular, 'man ascii' and pick the conversion you want. You'll
also get the popular %c conversion as well, all in a nice tabular
format.

OB perl variant:

--snip--
#!/usr/bin/perl

my $arg = shift;

eval "\$i = $arg;";

printf "%s is one of: 0%o or %dd or 0x%X\n", $arg, map {$i} 0 .. 2;

# who said map wasn't useful?
