Looks just fine to me, and it seems to work ok too.

The attached patch makes PSPP able to read all of the portable files I could find on the web, including the EBCDIC ones.  (I should say, the "EBCDIC" ones, because they turned out to actually be in ASCII but claim to be in EBCDIC.  I assume that they were recoded by some kind of translation program.)

Also, I found out the format of a documents record while doing testing, so I added documents writing to the portable file writer.

(file #13507)

A number of EBCDIC portable files can be found by typing "spss ebcdic port file" into Google.  It would be a good idea to test with some of these.
