OGETX
example, doublebyte characters might be split between MVS data set
records, or a “shift-out” state might span records.
TEXT
Specifies that the files in the directory being copied contains text. This is the
default.
If you are using a DBCS-supported terminal, you should use TEXT. It is
assumed that doublebyte data in the file system includes the
character in order to delineate line boundaries. Data within these lines that
are delineated by characters must begin and end in the “shift-in”
state.
CONVERT(character_conversion_table | YES | NO)
Specifies that the data being copied is to be converted from code page 1047 to
code page IBM-237 or ASCII; that is,the FROM1047 part of the specified
character conversion table is used. This operand is optional. If it is omitted, the
system copies the data without conversion.
Use this option for singlebyte data only.
Specify the CONVERT value as one of the following:
character_conversion_table
Specify one of the following:
v data_set_name(member_name). Specifies the name of the partitioned
data set (PDS) and the name of the member that contains the character
conversion table.
v data_set_name. Specifies the name of the partitioned data set (PDS)
that contains the character conversion table. The table is the FROM1047
part in member BPXFX000. (This is an alias; when shipped by IBM, it
points to BPXFX111.)
v (member_name). Specifies the name of the conversion table to be used.
It is a member of a PDS. Since the data_set_name is omitted, the
standard library concatenation is searched for the table. (The default
library is SYS1.LINKLIB.)
The following list summarizes what you can specify when you want to
convert data to a different code page when copying singlebyte data:
– BPXFX100. Null character conversion table. Use this table if the
square brackets at your workstation are at the same code points as
the square brackets on code page 1047 (it is the default). Also use it
if you are using a DBCS terminal.
– BPXFX111. Specifies a non-APL conversion table to convert between
code pages IBM-037 and IBM-1047.
– BPXFX211. Specifies an APL conversion table to convert between
code pages IBM-037 and IBM-1047.
– BPXFX311. Specifies an ASCII-EBCDIC conversion table to convert
between code pages ISO8859-1 and IBM-1047.
YES
Specifies that the system is to perform conversion and use the default
conversion table (BPXFX000) in the standard library concatenation.
(BPXFX000 is an alias; when shipped by IBM, it points to BPXFX111.)
NO
850 z/OS V1R9.0 UNIX System Services Command Reference
Specifies that conversion not be done. NO is the same as omitting the
CONVERT operand.
