------------------------- All shell and utilities must respect the code page tag on all files. I'm primarily interested in the openssh, specifically ssh-keygen, but all shell/utilities need to be code page tag aware. This is extremely important as some ported tools will create files as ISO8859-1 causing those files to be unusable by some of the z/OS utilities that expect/require those files to be in EBDCIC (IBM-1047). Specific use case: 1. using the zopen openssh ssh-keygen the generated keys are tagged ISO8859-1 2. using the zopen git to access GitHub the ssh connection fails as the ssh key is reported in an invalid format 3. recreate the ssh keys using the /bin/ssh-keygen the resulting keys are untagged and git works -- Lionel B.
