| SAS Software in the OS/390 Environment |
The following
commands have been enhanced:
- INCLUDE supports the * wildcard character for specifying a concatenation
of UNIX System Services files.
- The FILE and INCLUDE commands support a new ENCODING= option.
This option enables you to dynamically change the character-set encoding when
reading from or writing to external files.
The %KEYDEF
macro, for defining function keys, is obsolete.
The
following statements have been enhanced:
- The FILENAME statement supports REP as a valid value for the
DISP= option. Specifying DISP=REP enables you to create or replace an external
file without knowing whether the file already exists.
- The FILENAME statement supports the UPRINTER device type for
Universal Printing.
- The FILENAME, INFILE, and %INCLUDE statements support the
* wildcard character for specifying a concatenation of UNIX System Services
files.
- The FILE, FILENAME, and INFILE statements support a new ENCODING=
option. This option enables you to dynamically change the character-set encoding
when reading from or writing to external files.
- The following system options are
new:
- ENCODING= specifies the character-set encoding
for reading from or writing to external files.
- LOCALE= specifies the locale for the SAS
session. The locale reflects the local conventions, language, and culture
of a geographical region.
- NLSCOMPATMODE controls the encoding that
is used for processing character data.
- REALMEMSIZE= specifies the amount of virtual
memory that SAS can allocate to procedures and applications.

variables.
