Send text options (CICS)
Options include:
- ASCII
- Use this option for text files and for files that you want to be converted from ASCII
to EBCDIC. This is valid for SBCS languages, Traditional Chinese, and Korean. PC 1-byte codes are
converted into EBCDIC codes. For DBCS, inserts shift in/shift out (SI/SO) characters
into DBCS fields.
- JISCII
- This option is valid for Japanese DBCS sessions only and converts 1-byte codes to
EBCDIC and 2-byte codes to IBM Kanji. JISCII inserts shift in/shift out (SI/SO)
characters into DBCS fields.
- CRLF
- Carriage Return and Line Feed. CRLF (x'0D0A') is removed from the end of each
line. EOF (x'1A') is removed from the end of a file.
- NOSO
- This option is valid only for DBCS and only when used with the JISCII or ASCII
option. NOSO prevents the conversion of SO (x'0E') and SI (x'0F') before and after
the DBCS field. It also prevents the conversion of RS (x'1E') and US (x'1F') to SO
(x'0E') and SI (x'0F').
- APPEND
- The transferred file will be appended to an existing host file that has the same
name, if one exists. If APPEND is not specified, the transferred file overwrites the
existing host file.
- NEW
- The transfer stops if the file already exists. This option can be used to protect
against accidentally erasing an existing file.
