2: BSCTRAN Commands and Options
DC 900-1406E 47
/ESCAPE If this option is specified, the BSC File Transfer program looks
for a two-character forms-control escape sequence at the
beginning of each incoming data record. The escape character
is deleted and the forms control character is converted to the
equivalent RMS print file carriage control. The escape sequence
must consist of an escape character followed by one of the fol-
lowing:
If an escape sequence is found in the first data record (and nei-
ther the
/FORTRAN nor the /ESCAPE option is specified), forms
control will default to
/FORTRAN or /ESCAPE depending on the
character following the escape character.
In
RECEIVE mode, the BSC File Transfer program will open the
file with defaults of record format = variable, record attribute =
carriage return carriage control, and maximum record length =
512, unless directed otherwise by certain options. Table 2–2
shows the effect of various options on record format and
attributes.
