Surely someone on this list will help me get bcp to work on a Mac?  I had
this working a year ago, but after a machine crash and a reinstall, I
can't seem to remember the magic incantation or even find the
documentation.  

I have the Sybase tools set up on my Mac.  I defined SYBASE, but when I
run isql, I get this:

$ isql

The context allocation routine failed when it tried to load localization
files!!
One or more following problems may caused the failure

Your sybase home directory is /Applications/Sybase/System/OCS-12_5. Check
the environment variable SYBASE if it is not the one you want!
Cannot access file
/Applications/Sybase/System/OCS-12_5/config/objectid.dat
An error occurred when attempting to allocate localization-related
structures.

The Utilities Guide sent me to: 

$ dscp

The context allocation routine failed when it tried to load localization
files!!
One or more following problems may caused the failure

Your sybase home directory is /Applications/Sybase/System/OCS-12_5. Check
the environment variable SYBASE if it is not the one you want!
Cannot access file
/Applications/Sybase/System/OCS-12_5/config/objectid.dat

DSCP initialization failed


at which point I decided I need basic help and would ask a kind soul.  

isql is on the path because I put symbolic links to the Sybase utilities
in /usr/local/bin.  

Many thanks.
