I have to work with data in different code pages all the time. It's not
too bad in ISPF.
Here's some of the help for the ISPF Browse DISPLAY command:
display line 1 5 cols 20 30 ccsid 1200 will display
the characters in lines 1 through 5 at
columns 20 through 30 as UTF-16 data.
Acronyms UTF8, UTF16, UTF32, UCS2, UNICODE
ASCII, USASCII and EBCDIC may be used for
the subparameter 'CCSID n' where n is the
relevant CCSID value.
UTF8 represents CCSID 1208,
UTF16 - CCSID 1200, UTF32 - CCSID 1232,
ASCII - CCSID 850, USASCII - CCSID 819,
UCS2 & UNICODE - CCSID 17584,
and EBCDIC - CCSID 1047.
The line and cols parameters are optional
and if omitted the command applies to the
full line or column range. If only 1 line
or column value is given, then the command
only applies to that line or column.
Here's a link to the list of CCSID code pages provided by ISPF
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSLTBW_2.3.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r3.f54dg00/ecpt.htm#ecpt
In addition, I have various PCOMM profiles set to work with different code
pages by default, like 1047, 037, ibm420, 1140, 1141, and 273.
To change PCOMM profile for the default terminal code page, I do have to
log off and on, but just to look at the data with ISPF Browse I do not.
