IBM Professional Series User Manual

Copying a Program from Personal Computer
DOS to VMjPC (IMPORT)
If you have a file whose record length is 1200, you can use
the
IMPORT command with these options to copy a program
(or binary file) from the Personal Computer to
VM/PC
environment:
import c:myprog.com myprog command a (noascii noeol lrecl 1200
As with the text file IMPORT shown above, the Personal
Computer file
on the C disk (named myprog.com) is copied
onto your
VM/PC A disk (named myprog command).
However, different options are given here. NOASCII means
don't convert the file from ASCII to EBCDIC when it is
copied. NOEOL means don't use any end-of-line characters
in the file to define line ends in the new file.
Note that in general, you will use the
"ascii" option with the
"eol" option if you are copying text files, and the "noascii"
option with the "noeol" option if you are copying programs.
Copying a Program from VMjPC to Personal
Computer
DOS (EXPORT)
If you want to copy the program back onto your Personal
Computer C disk, you could use this
EXPORT command
and options:
export myprog command a C:myprog.com (noascii noeol rep
The only difference here from the IMPORT command used
above
is the option 'rep'. That means replace the file named
myprog.com
on the C disk with the file being copied.
