APL characters

GDDM V3R2 Base Application Programming Guide
SC33-0867-01



The CECP character set does not include APL characters. If you want to write an application that uses these characters, you can either use the GDDM default EBCDIC set (00351) as the application code page or specify the special APL code page (00293) on the ASTYPE call, which overrides the alphanumeric character-code assignments of the device. Alternatively, if a nonloadable APL symbol set is available, you can use the ASCSS or GSCS calls to specify it for alphanumerics or graphics text.

If you choose code page 00351 and also require the national use characters for your country, you need to replace the GDDM default symbol sets. The process is described in the GDDM System Customization and Administration book.
