Specifying input parameters Example 2 In this example, consecutive input codes, such as X'5B' and X'5C', need not be specified to accomplish code modification. CODE2: CODE DEFAULT=EBCDIC, ASSIGN=(X'5A',(X'40',X'40', X'40')); CODE SPACECODE Defines the blank (space) character code for the single-byte character set. Syntax ac: CODE SPACECODE = spacecode, Options Table 2-18. CODE SPACECODE parameter options and definitions Option Definition spacecode Defines the code for a blank space. Default X'20'(CODE=ASCII), X'40'(CODE not ASCII) CODE SPACECODE parameter: point to note SPACECODE must be specified after the DEFAULT parameter. If SPACECODE is specified before DEFAULT, the spacecode value is overwritten by X'20' or X'40'. Hexadecimal output option strings (such as X'20'), as well as text string constants (for example, a), are not translated before being put into the code assignment table. Therefore, you should keep ASCII or, more precisely, the encoding of the fonts that will be used, in mind when you use hexadecimal strings. DBCODE command Defines a double-byte character code translation table. When you require a user defined translation table of double-byte character codes, you define the double-byte character translation using the DBCODE command, then reference this command using the VOLUME DBCODE parameter. As an alternative, you can use the USER option of the VOLUME DBCODE parameter to reference the DBCODE command for which no identifier was provided. 2-22 Using LCDS Print Description Language
