Channel 9 used to cause some sort of interrupt to signal the program it was time for the end of page/top of page routine.
The ASA code for channel 12 is "C". Since the industry stopped using carriage control tapes, the usage of shipping to something other than channel 1, top of the next page, is dying out. The FCB is a virtual carriage tape though who still takes the time to create custom FCB's? It is a dying art. ____________________________ Jim Hughes 603-271-5586 "Any fool can criticize when a man makes a mistake - and most of them do." =>-----Original Message----- =>From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On =>Behalf Of Fran Hensler =>Sent: Thursday, May 08, 2008 2:24 PM =>To: [email protected] =>Subject: Re: RSCS LPR ?? => =>Tom - => =>I believe that RSCS LPR will only detect ASA control characters. =>There is no ASA control character for skip to channel 12. => =>To get to line 44 you would have to count lines and print blank lines =>after the last detail line to get to line 44. => =>/Fran Hensler at Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania USA for 45 years => [EMAIL PROTECTED] +1.724.738.2153 => "Yes, Virginia, there is a Slippery Rock" => =>On Thu, 8 May 2008 12:43:14 -0500 Huegel, Thomas said: =>>I have a report that has some simple carraige control in it ....
