To obtain a full screen of input (via a TGET macro) that is not edited in any way, the command processor can specify the NOEDIT keyword on STFSMODE. Regardless of the options the command processor specifies on the TGET macro, in NOEDIT mode, VTAM® does not edit the data, break it into separate input lines, or modify it. VTAM receives the input from the terminal and puts it on the input queue intact. To establish NOEDIT mode, the command processor must issue:

STFSMODE ON,NOEDIT=YES

Use of the NOEDIT keyword has no effect on the treatment of TPUTs and TPGs.
