perl.mvs...Perl Applications by Sastry- July 30, 2006 HiWe know that Perl is used for various puposes including textmanipulation,file maintenance and automation of system administration. It isalso popular for CGI programming on the web owing to its inherent ability toprocess text. "It is highly adaptable and intended to be easy to use andefficient." I am curious to know if any major applications are using perl. Ifound that awsat is such application using perl.Are there any other major applications using Perl and exploiting thefeatures of.http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.mvs/2006/07/msg1520.html Re: Convert-IBM390-0.22 module by ashish agarwal- July 24, 2006 Hi Geoffrey,As Peter suggested we may require some changes. As of now I fixed threetestcases as I mentioned in my previous mail but other three are stillgiving error, may be it is problem in the code itself, but I am not verysure for that. This module will be help full for user of zOS who want to doconversions between ACSIIEBCDIC and vice versa for OS390 and other EBCDICrelated module also, so it will be great if you can provide me some fix forthe same. We can together work to solve this issue..http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.mvs/2006/07/msg1519.html Re: Convert-IBM390-0.22 module by Peter Prymmer- July 20, 2006 Geoffrey Rommel <nazconsultsbcglobal.net> wrote on 07192006 10:57:59 AM:> Well, this is a poser.

My first question is why you would even want this module in zOS, since its main purpose is to convert EBCDIC data to a Unix or Windows environment. If you really do want it, it won&39;t be easy. The module assumes that it will be running on an ASCII platform. I believe even a Unix System Services partition under zOS uses ASCII. You, however, seem to be running in a true EBCDIC environment, so all of the character conversions are failing. This is to be expected. ...http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.mvs/2006/07/msg1517.html Convert-IBM390-0.22 module by ashish agarwal- July 19, 2006 Hi,I am working on Convert-IBM390-0.22 module for EBCDIC platform zOS andwhile doing gmake test I am getting 6 failures.
