Ah, yes. With my emulator set to 037 using this trick does make the
display look correct. With the 1047 code page, it still looks garbled.

Now why does no combination of the above let my square brackets display
correctly??

Here's an experiment from our class "Introduction to z/OS UNIX":

1. Get into omvs without a "convert" operand 2. Issue this (invalid)
command
      id -Gr
3. Examine the result; exit omvs
4. Get into omvs with a "convert((bpxfx111))" operand 5. Issue the same
command 6. Compare the results.




Kind regards,
