I am delighted to stand corrected on this. So, Pinnacle can
deal with the ISV's zipped archive with no need to run an FTP
server anywhere but on z/OS.
Kinda slow, but effective for this purpose.
How does it deal with ASCII/EBCDIC "issues" as they might affect
Pinnacle's ISV's product? I hate EBCDIC.
What's the inverse operation? Which FM do I need to RT?
Thanks for enlightening me,
gil
