Hmm. _BPXK_AUTOCVT is ON; setting it to OFF means that a text file tagged as ISO8859-1 now displays as garbage, which makes sense. IBM-1047 and untagged files display OK. (It also breaks OS-generated text in my shell prompt, which is interesting-but not literals in that same prompt.) But it doesn't seem to affect FTP, which makes sense-how would I set it for an FTP session? Or are you suggesting setting it for the FTP server? It's not set there unless it's defaulting. FILETAG appears to apply only to C/C++. If you meant the tag on the file, that's what my chtag was tinkering with. I feel like I'm arguing with you, and I don't mean to-I appreciate the thoughts! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
