RE: Re: GCIC Fullscreen applications

About the Tilde character
 
I am using it as the default non-dispaly character instead of the period. 
 
There may be some problems there and you may have to enter it in HEX
to get it to accept it..
 
Try changing it on the HEX SCREEN to  hex 'A1'   (I think that is the hex
for TILDE)
 
I'll look at the issue - 
But I chose the Tilde Character speceifcally because it is rarely used and
and does not clutter up the dispaly if there are many non displayable hex
characters on the screen -
Very complicatd logic there. it is not straight forward you have 
Upi hve three different pieces of data -what is displayed, what is in the
file and what is received
Have to dsiplay what is received afer translaltion - data has to be updated
but screen logic no.
TILDE is special bacaue I use it for other functions in the logic
But should work if you enter it in HEX
 
The file chould be correct AND YOU SHOULD SEE THAT IN THE HEX Disilay if you
enter it in HEX
 
Try editing a variable length file that has small rec size.
It will give you nuls till the end. YOu will only see them in HEX mode
In edit mode it will look like balnaks -

HEX  is a line command on a specific record not on the command line
 
Check in HEXwhat is there for the tilde character
 
 
CH /rocky/KUKURIKO/
 
Will change the entire file from top to bottom - Only first occurrence on a
specific line
Will shift characters to the right if the second filed is larger than the
first - or shift characters to the left if the first field is larger that
the second.
No shifting should occur after the trunc position.
 
Example- assembler
Pos 73-80 is usually a numeric sequence
Pos 72 is  the continuation line if you have a coninuing macro or constant
 
YOU CANNOT SHIFT THOSE CHARACTERS --
 
SINCE most assembler programs have a sequence Number without the TRUNC 71 -
YOu could not insert anything where field 2 is larger than field one. ever. 
Because that would mean shifting the numbers out also logic with shifting
the continuation,
 With trunc 71 - the characters shifted out are shifted up until pos 71.
 
No characters other than blanks or nulls will be shifted out --
YOU get a message and the line is not changed at all ifpos 71 is not
available.
Or 70-and 71 if you need to add two characters - ETC.

Hi Roc,

1) I tried HEX ... HEX on .... nothing happens

2) The 'tilde' character " ~ " is displayed as a blank

3) I'm not sure how the CH and TRUNC work together. Would be nice
to have CH default to first found occurence, with an option CH
/foo/bar/g /g = global ...... maybe also /nnn .e.g CH
/foo/bar/5 (change the next five occurences.

Everything else seems to be working.

Great work!

MIke
