NEC Special Character Table

Although custom character tables are not provided with HULFT, some of the NEC special characters are used often. Therefore, these are provided as a template table. It is imported and used in the existing custom character table file.

The template of NEC special character table provided is stored in the 'GTEXTK' file in the library where HULFT is installed.

Table 3.17 File List of NEC Special Character Table Template

Input Code	Output Code	Model Member Name
IBM Kanji	EUC-JP	KTITOE
IBM Kanji	Shift-JIS	KTITOS
IBM Kanji	JEF	KTITOJ
IBM Kanji	UTF-8	KTITO8
EUC-JP	IBM Kanji	KTETOI
Shift-JIS	IBM Kanji	KTSTOI
JEF	IBM Kanji	KTJTOI
UTF-8	IBM Kanji	KT8TOI

The inclusion method of conversion of custom characters of NEC special characters when converting from IBM Kanji code to Shift-JIS code is shown below as a creation example.

The example explains the case where HULFT is installed in HULFT library.

Copying of the table file

Copy the content of the NEC special characters table file from IBM Kanji to Shift-JIS

*                            
* FROM IBM KANJI TO SJIS     
*                            
                             
* DEFAULT OUTPUT CODE        
DEFAULTCODE=0X81A0           
                             
*INCODE     *OUTCODE         
*IBM        SJIS

0XE271     0X8741 
0XE272     0X8742

• The text in bold is copied.

• The lines starting with '*' in the file shown above are comments.

  Lines starting with 0x7B are also comments. However, the character represented by 0x7B varies depending on the code set. In the code sets for Japanese, 0x7B represents '#.'

Editing the custom character file

Paste the content copied in Copying of the table fileto the custom character table file for IBM Kanji to Shift-JIS. For custom character table file, refer to Table 3.16 Custom character table files.

Creation of the conversion file

Create the custom character conversion file.

CALL HULFT/UTLGTFEXTD PARM('I=IS')

Confirmation of the conversion file

Verify the content of the conversion file in standard output.

CALL HULFT/UTLGTFEXTD PARM('O=IS')
