Translation table for generic string special characters

The translation table for generic string special characters (Table 1) is used to assign a code of X'01' to X'16' to generic string special characters according to the generic string character (GSC) table (Table 1) as follows:

Numbers and letters translate to their EBCDIC hexadecimal codes.
Other valid characters, that is, characters used to represent a character subset for Edit and Browse picture strings, are represented by the offset from the generic string character table corresponding to the subset they represent. In Table 1, (X'7B') has a value of ‘07’ because ‘07’ is the offset in the generic string character table for the subset of numeric characters, which the # is used to represent.
Characters that are invalid in a generic string are represented with X'FF'.
