HLASM hass a C2X, but also an A2X.

If the mnemonic were TR12 then it wouldn't be hot to TROT.

TROT is way easy in Rexx:

signal on novalue
do Line = 0 to 15
Chars = "         DC    C'"
    do Col = Line * 16 to Line * 16 + 15
        Chars = Chars || c2x( right( d2c( Col ), 1 ) )
        end Col
    say Chars"'"
end Line

... it'e the C2X() that makes it work

I can generate a table in HLASM:

TABLE DC 256AL2((*-TABLE)/2)

... but it's the wrong table

I'm HLASM-naive.  Has HLASM anything like C2X, perhaps in a
macro from cbttape.org, conditional or mainstream assembly?
Or must it be done painstakingly, character by character?

(TR12 would be a better mnemonic.  Do any opcodes contain digits?)
