Yes; it's the VTAM equivalent of TIOC, and is the interface between
TPUT et al and VTAM.

Doubtful; it's probably a character set issue. It sounds like you and
Mark are using two different sets of translate tables.

>Here's the x3270 trace:

TPUT or VTAM? What is the formatting? I see that you do have a PT
(x'05') after your hyphens, which *should* skip to the next
unprotected field; probably *not* what you[1] want, but legal. The
meaning of PT for 3270 is *not* the same as HT fo SCS, even though
they have the same code point.

If you run a TPUT trace, take a look at the type of TPUT; that may
shed some light on things. Off hand I'd say that OMVS should translate
out the tabs and add spaces, but that may require submitting a formal
requirement rather than just an ETR.
