Hi,

How do I change the ebcdic.tbl to support EBCDIC cp00278?

Somehow I can't understand the manual.

Regards
Kroppen

The on-line help topic "Translating Files - Creating Your Own Translation Table"
describes how to modify the ebcdic.tbl file; I would suggest creating a new
file e.g. ebcdic-278.tbl.

Then modify the last line in your ustartup.vdm file

From:

// Translate_Load("ANSI.TBL") // Load the desired translation table.

To:

Translate_Load("ebcdic-278.tbl") // Load the desired translation table.

Ted.

Perhaps the supplied macro TBL-DUMP.VDM may help.

It creates a view on an existing .tbl file that is more readable (and
hopefully better understandable) than the raw format.

Anyway: The editing itself has to be done with the original file, like
described in the online help.
