The arithmetic in SPEC is somewhat designed after the IBM 407
Accounting Machine. You will fine a few references to that in The Book

Someone posted the exact way to get the 407 info. I don't have a system
available to find it on.
great - i got that to work in my PIPE.
thanks for the direction.

You can issue PIPE AHELP SPECTUT and PIPE AHELP SPECREF for a tutorial and
the SPECS reference.
A little changed pipe:
PIPE (sep !) Literal |1234.56|
! Specs FS | a: F2 . Print a*1000 PIC 99 1
! cons
And, as you seem brandnew in 407:
"a: F2 . "
means assign symbol "a" to field

Phil,
Look for "407 emulation", probably in the "Authors help".

Phil, the best source of current PUIPE documentation is the so-called
"Author's Edition" of the documentation. You can find a current copy here:
http://vm.marist.edu/~pipeline/
Look for the section entitled "CMS/TSO Pipelines Author's Edition".
Good luck.

yes, nora is correct - that is the manipulation that i need.
i have used PIPEs to convert all the | to ¦ to help in reading the

i understand the literal stage, but the SPECS seems to not be complete
with a stage separator before it is complete.
should it be:

It certainly explains my lack of response ;-) I suppose the poster

The silence here probably means the audience is not familiar with "COBOL

I can say however that in your specs you have two things that are not
required, hence pure overhead: "PAD BLANK" is default and when padding is
with blanks
i am using pipelines to reformat a DB data dump file that has vertical
bars as field separators.
one of the fields is a dollar amount which can take any of these formats:
0
1
12
123.4
1234.56
i want to reformat this as input for a COBOL program where the field is
9(7).9(7)
can i do this in the
14 matches
