What does your "accented lower case O" look like.  What accent?  In Unicode.
I find at least the following:
ö small o umlaut
ô small o circumflex
ó small o acute
ò small o grave

What language does it come from?  That might be a clue to the EBCDIC
code page.

In ISO8859-1, 'A2'x is "¢", a cent sign.   I might expect other languages to
overload that.

See: https://www.terena.org/activities/multiling/ml-docs/iso-8859.html

Numerous EBCDIC code pages exist.  Rather than guessing, can you determine
which one is actually being used?  Which one do you intend to use?  Answering
that answers half the question.  Is it one or these?:

YMMV.  If you don't use code page 1047 (for the value of square brackets in C 
language sources), you can use ibm-037, which is I think the default z/OS code 
page unless otherwise set by your friendly neighborhood sysprogs.

Is there such a character in the ebcdic world?   All my google searches for

For another non-Rexx solution, consider StarTool (or I believe PDS command from

About 'exec', REXX has a function (sorry, I don't have access to my favourite

Of course, you need to conjure up an exec to do that thing.

Re: SMTP Mail from z/OS

[Bruce C Baxter]

I should have qualified my statements acknowledging that sendmail can often be 
used as an open relay.  In this case, we're sending email only outbound, and 
the IPSEC firewall pretty much precludes anyone from off platform connecting to 
the SMTP mail daemon on z/OS USS.

You assert that CSSMTP was designed to eliminate those exposures...  Which 
refers back to the open relay discussion... Certainly can't deny that CSSMTP 
cannot be used as an open SMTP mail gateway.  My assertion would be that it's 
not because it closes the vulnerabilities inherent to sendmail being usable as 
an open gateway --- rather it implements an entirely different protocol that 
the SMTPD used and thus precludes any clients using SMTP as a protocol to 
communicate with a sendmail daemon local to the platform.  That's NOT a 
design...

Yes.  I agree that most mainframe email is outbound only.

As others have noted, the short answer is "Yes", but you're dipping a toe into 
a deep and fast-flowing river here. I'm going to be fairly normative here, but 
none of it is aimed at you, so don't take it personally please.


First, "ASCII" is a surprisingly vague term. Most people mean "7-bit ASCII" 
when they use the term; that would not, of course, include "extended" 
characters past x'7F', like your x'A2'.

 

There are historical encodings that include characters past x'7F'; nowadays, 
it's pretty well all Unicode and UTF-8.

 

UTF-8 is an *encoding* scheme (there are also UTF-16 and UTF-32). It's also 
variable in length: UTF-8 means a given glyph (thing "thing you would normally 
call a character") can be one to four bytes. Like many such schemes it uses the 
high bits to indicate which length a character is: that is, one-byte characters 
always have the high bit off. (And let's not get into big endian vs. little 
endian and assume big-endian here.) So your normal a-z and friends are Just 
What We've Always Called ASCII.

 

The Unicode comprises 17 "planes" of 65K characters each. The one we mostly use 
is the Basic Multilingual Plane, or BMP. That includes the traditional 7-bit 
ASCII characters and most other common languages, including Asian languages 
(which occupy the bulk of the space).

 

UTF-8 (-16, -32) is unambiguous (modulo normalization, see below) and so you 
can have a Latin A next to a Latin A with aigu next to a Cyrillic ya next to a 
Chinese glyph, all in the same string.

 

EBCDIC, OTOH, is (modulo DBCS) a hard-and-fast 8-bits-per-character encoding. 
Hint: that's 256 characters. Period. So the EBCDIC approach is to say "These 
characters ARE code page x", and that information is stored (hopefully) as 
metadata. That means that a given string is (FSVO "is") an English code page, 
or a French one, or Cyrillic, or Greek. Display it using the wrong code page 
and it'll be wrong-it will display characters, but not the right ones. A common 
example: code page 1047 vs. 037, which are the same except for the square 
brackets, which will be wrong in the "other" code page (we and probably some 
others have configuration data sets that use those characters, and handle 
either to make life simpler for our users).

 

So the challenge is to move between Unicode and EBCDIC. The good news: ICONV 
and ICU are your friends here. These are more-or-less standard utilities, 
available on many platforms; on z/OS, ICONV is in USS by default, and is 
extended beyond most implementations to support EBCDIC better. So if your input 
is UTF-8 (most likely) or "plain" ASCII (same thing at that level-remember, 
7-bit ASCII is a subset of UTF-8), you can convert with ICONV to a specific 
EBCDIC code page.

 

HTH

 

.phsiii

 

P.S. Unicode normalization: there are a few "mistakes" in Unicode: that is, 
characters that are duplicated at different locations. E.g., the omega and the 
ohm symbol. These display the same, so Unicode has this concept of 
"normalization", which means that it's considered legitimate to convert one of 
these to the other (with a specific target, that is, YOU don't decide which one 
you like: the normalization rules say "The omega is the right one", or vice 
versa). There are also combining characters: an a with aigu can be encoded as a 
single character, or as an a plus a "combining" aigu. Normalization converges 
these (in this case, to the single character). This is vital for comparisons: 
otherwise I send you something with the "wrong" omega or a-aigu in it and your 
searches/comparisons fail.

 

It gets worse: There are even multiply-combining code points for some 
languages, such as a "d" with dots above and below. There are both "d with a 
dot below" and "d with a dot above" characters, but there is no "d with both 
dots" character. Thus there may be four ways to represent this character:

1.   d + combining-dot-above + combining-dot-below (three code 
points)

2.   d + combining-dot-below + combining-dot-above (three code 
points)

3.   d-with-dot-above + combining-dot-below (two code points)

4.   d-with-dot-below + combining-dot-above (two code points)

 

Unicode normalization will convert any of the first three sequences to the 
fourth.

 

Note that this is why terms like "character" get fuzzy, and "glyph" or 
"grapheme" are better (and those are subtly different, though mostly you only 
care if you're talking actual fonts). A glyph can be one or more code points 
and one or more bytes, and "character" gets used imprecisely to refer to any of 
these three concepts (glyph, code point, byte), so beware!

Re: Accented Names in EBCDIC -> ASCII

Indeed there are.  See code points X'CB' to X'CF' in these tables for accented 
lower case letter oh.

Subject: Accented Names in EBCDIC -> ASCII

I see there is an extended ASCII table which has accented characters; like the 
hex A2 which is an accented lower case O.

Is there such a character in the ebcdic world?   All my google searches for 
EBCDIC to ASCII conversions aren't showing accented characters in EBCDIC.

Thanks,

Dennis

I assume that REXXCMD uses CONSOLE. Check the CONSOLE options.

  We issue a lot of mvs commands ( RO *all,D U,x) by REXXCMD(REXX program)

 We found there arejust  part of this commands responsed.


Is there any way to solve this problem?  increase the time interval between 
each command?

or use PGM=SDSF?

Any thoughts/comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Thanks a lot!

Re: part of TSO commands are no RESPONSE from PGM=IKJEFT01

[Seymour J Metz]

That sounds like they're using TPUT directly instead of using the TSO service 
routines. You might try opening a PMR, but I suspect the response will be BAD.

What happens when you type part of the command in the OMVS command line and end 
it with backslash (\)?

Is there a panel in ishell for entering long commands?

I've been looking for an answer to this for the better part of 2 days.

When I enter TSO OMVS on my ISPF screen, is there a way to make the command 
area larger than 2 lines.

I have a long command I want to enter that doesn't fit on the two lines I 
currently have.

Apologies is this is a basic ?; I don't spend a lot of time on the USS side of 
z/OS.

Re: part of TSO commands are no RESPONSE from PGM=IKJEFT01

[Hobart Spitz]

I think you need to give us some more information.  I'm not familiar with
XQUERY and it's quirks.  What kind of response are you expecting?  Is the
output dataset empty?

That said, it's been so long since I've run anything in batch without REXX
I don't recall if vanilla TSO reports non-zero return codes.

You may want to find/tweak a mainframe version of REXXTRY, and add
PARM=REXXTRY to your EXEC.  Be sure to have a SYSEXEC DD for the library
where you put REXXTRY.  In addition to return code reporting REXXTRY let's
you use most REXX features.  E.g., you can set a variable to the DSN and/or
VOL if the change between runs. Put your commands in quotation marks, and
follow REXX syntax.

It looks like you might benefit from writing a batch REXX EXEC to do that
work.

See these documents for more information.
