International character set translation

The Rumba APPC Configuration tool works with the international character set specified in the regional settings for your workstation. This translation is accomplished using codepage tables stored in the Program Files(x86)\Micro Focus\Rumba\System\Charsets folder.

These tables work with Rumba software:

• The character set that Rumba uses is determined by the country that is specified in the > Region and Language window.
• EBCDIC to ANSI translation (or mapping) for your workstation is based on the codepage table currently in use.
• The Program Files(x86)\Micro Focus\Rumba\System\Charsets folder contains files called chr2exxx.gen, where xxx is the locale code. For example, 037 is the code for USA.

To modify the character mapping for a specific language, use a text editor to modify the corresponding chr2exxx.gen file. There are no registry settings or .ini file settings to make or change.
