Thanks to those that offered help (some were offline). When I set the code page of the OMVS terminal, it works f.cvtcmd = SETAUTOCVTON ; f.fccsid = 0x0417 ; // set this f.pccsid = 0x0000 ; // ignore this * rc =fcntl( STDOUT_FILENO,action, &f ); * it works. Before Python the filetag(fccsid) for STDOUT is 0, afterwards it is 0x0417 ( = 1047)
I can't find a command to set the code page of my omvs session. *TSO OMVS CONV((BPXFX111)) *makes no difference. I'll raise this on the IBM Community, as it feels like a defect to me ( or at least a documentation update) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
