All such byte values must be coded in ASCII-hexadecimal format rather than in
EBCDIC-hexadecimal format (Tandem’s SSCP translates these table values from ASCII
to EBCDIC automatically). For example, the New Line control character for 3270
devices is %H15 in EBCDIC. In the ESS table, this must be coded as %H85, which is
the ASCII translation of %H15.
Examples of other operand data formats are:
operand data
o
perand name
(2) MSGTEXT "save these blanks and commas ,,,"
operand data
o
perand name
(1) CMDTYPE LOGOFF
Some operands support operand data strings that can be several hundred bytes long.
Such strings will necessarily exceed the command line and can extend over several
lines. You can express this kind of operand data using line continuations, which must
obey the following rules:
1. Operand data must be enclosed by parentheses.
2. All lines that are to be continued must be delimited by a comma followed by an
ampersand (&).
Below is an example of how to use line continuations:
operand ( "This is an alphanumeric string ", &
"followed by byte data" , &
%HC1 , %HC2 , %HFF , ! HEXADECIMAL DATA ! &
"More string data here" )
