C2AC in UTF-8, which I consider the most important because it dominates my
desktop,
and the one I copied/pasted from regina.pdf..
Otherwise, for z/OS UNIX, AC in ISO8859-1 (matching Windows-1252.)
Does Rexx use any other non-ASCII delimiters?
But let EBCDIC be a warning. From the ISPF Edit Macros Ref.:
Regular expressions (string, string1)
ISPF queries the host code page defined for your TN3270 session. If the
code page
is one of the following:
[list of 52]
.... This is done so that the special symbols (such as square brackets)
within the
regular expression are correctly interpreted when the regcomp function is
used to
compile the regular expression.
(In response to my RCF):
in an Edit macro that is called from a batch Edit session (where no terminal
is attached), code page 1047 is used.
... so copies of Edit macros for all code pages are required! The PCRE
document
mentions this, not kindly.
The exec or Edit macro should reside in a UNIX directory, tagged with CCSID.
