That's a grave accusation, but the characters in the command in the message only have "'", not "`".
BTW, "`" has a special significance in Eunix shells, but not in general. In particular, it has no special significance in Rexx, even when running on a Unix-like system. So either the code in the message is not the same as the code that got the error, or Regina has an issue with quotes. I consider the former more likely, but a hex display of the code should answer the question. -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)

This character has a special meaning in Linux. Best regards Mike -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> On Behalf Of ITschak Mugzach Sent: Donnerstag, 1. August 2024 09:51 To: [email protected] Subject: Regina rexx translate error I know, this is a mainframe forum, but I know many of you use Regina. Anyway, the command XXX = TRanslate(XXX,' ','"') get error msgs such as: sh: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"' sh: -c": line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file. As you can see, I do use single quotes to enclose the double quotes. Any idea how to perform this translation? I also tried xxx = translate(xxx,' ','22'x) with same errors ITschak ITschak Mugzach *|** IronSphere Platform* *|* *Information Security Continuous Monitoring for z/OS, x/Linux & IBM I **| z/VM coming soon * nbsp; *|* ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
