|
The HX (hexadecimal) line command displays characters in a data set or member in hexadecimal format. Syntax>>-HX--+---+--------------------------------------------------->< '-n-' >>-HXX---------------------------------------------------------><
DescriptionTo display characters on one or more lines in hexadecimal format:
To display characters in a block of lines in hexadecimal format:
When the file is not being displayed totally in hexadecimal format (that is, the HEX ON primary command is not in effect), records that have been marked by a HX or a HXX edit line command are displayed as a set of four lines, similar to the way records are displayed when the HEX ON primary command is used. The HX and HXX edit line commands act in a toggle manner to change the display of records. That is, if the record is already displayed in hexadecimal format due to an HX or HXX command, then issuing another HX or HXX command turns off the hexadecimal display for the record. Note: The
effect of any previous HX or HXX commands are canceled by the command,
HEX OFF. HX is not available with FASTPATH panels such as ISREDDE.
ExamplesFigure 1 shows how to use the HX command without any operands. To display a line in hexadecimal format, type HX in the line command field of the line you want to display. Figure 1. Before the HX (display in hexadecimal format) line

format) line command
