I looked at TERSE HELPCMS on an IBM internal system. TERSE has never
been distributed, as far as I know, but the FCOPY package on the VM
download library does contain FCOPYTRS MODULE, which seems to be a
"full function" terse (it can pack files as well as unpack.) It does
not include a help file for FCOPYTRS, though. The return codes in the
terse help file are:
1 | Help information displayed
4 | The exec was halted
8 | Error in command syntax
27 | STATEHSX cannot be found
28 | Input file not found
30 | * not allowed in output file ID
31 | PACK and UNPACK cannot both be specified
32 | PACK and SPACK cannot both be specified
33 | SPACK and UNPACK cannot both be specified
99 | The file is packed in an unknown format
100 | Short description of command syntax
100+x | File existence error: ESTATE gave code x (see HELP
| ESTATE)
136 | Input disk not accessed
150 | Output file exists, specify replace
151 | Could not allocate file buffer
500+x | File input error: RDBUF gave code x
600+x | File output error: WRBUF gave code x
800 | Input file corrupted: original file was RECFM F
| but a V format end of record was found.
801 | Input file corrupted: original file was RECFM F
| and last record does not contain enough data.
901 | Input file corrupted: Illegal codes found in compressed
| data.
1000+x | Not encoded by this version, but by version x
1001 | Encoded file not RECFM F LRECL 1024
