z/OS® V2R1 Communications
Server enhances TSO/VTAM to translate Extended English characters
for the TPUT macro instruction with the EDIT parameter. For more information
about the Extended English translation, see
D/T3174 Character
Set Reference.
This function provides the following options
for the TPUT EDIT translation for terminals that support the Extended
English character set: - Base English translation
- No translation
- Extended English translation
In previous releases, TSO/VTAM translated the Extended English
characters of the TPUT EDIT to colons. The colons were then sent to
terminals that supported the Extended English character set (Coded
Graphic Set Global Identifier (CGCSGID) of
X'02B90025').
