If you are just trying to view it and it won't fit in XEDIT try one or
more of:
- BROWSE fn ft fm - BROWSE has HEX ON|OFF|CHAR
- SHOW fn ft fm - SHOW has HEXMODE and HEXTYPE commands,
and I can offer a HEXVIEW XEDIT file
(based on Will Roden's work) will display hex data vertically like ISPF
- PIPE < fn ft fm | BROWSE - but no hex viewing unless you add
stage(s) for that
or, if your paging system can handle it...
- CP DEFINE STOR 16E, then IPL CMS and XEDIT the file - of course you'd
need to change the directory entry to set their machine size that high.
And... you won't get an actual 16E of storage even in current z9's. The
actual storage will be reduced to the maximum your hardware can support.
But cool to try, anyway.

Trouble with COPYFILE to shorten Record
I am trying to copy a file with the LRECL option to shorten it.
e.g.
Filename Filetype Fm Format Lrecl Records
TXJIM FILELIST A0 V 169 4920
COPYFILE TXJIM FILELIST A SORTER FILELIST A (LRECL 13
I expected the result to be a file with LRECL 13 but it is:
Filename Filetype Fm Format Lrecl
SORTER FILELIST A0 V 169
I need to do this soon. The file is too big to use XEDIT in a 2G machine.
Anybody have a PIPE to do this.
Note: The real file is hexadecimal data, not text.
