Mostly on "old" VM/VSE Machines. Rawdata is transferred via MQSeries and then encoded from "cp273" to "latin_1". The file has been translated from the original IBM RFC by myself. www.unicode.org has no equivalent file on their FTP-Servers (ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/). CP273 is an alias for this charset. source: IBM NLS RM Vol2 SE09-8002-01, March 1990 Regards Michael ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: M.-A. Lemburg (lemburg) Date: 2005-01-07 12:25 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=38388 Can you provide a reference of where and how this encoding is used ? We also need information of where the attached file originated.
