[Installation notes for VM/CMS port of UNZIP 5.32 and ZIP 2.2]
|
|
Additional notes from Ian E. Gorman (4/98):
|
|
|
|
I have not fully tested ZIP and UNZIP in VM (for example, I have not
|
|
tried all the options), so ZIP 2.2 for VM and UNZIP 5.32 for VM
|
|
should be regarded as beta versions. Try them out before you decide
|
|
that you can depend on them.
|
|
|
|
Most of the work for the VM port has been done by others, but I have
|
|
made some changes and compiled on a more recent version of VM/CMS. It
|
|
is possible that I have introduced new problems or undone some of the
|
|
solutions found by previous authors.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
The executables are stored in CMS "PACK" format instead of being
|
|
stored in ZIP archives. This format takes a little longer to
|
|
download, but installation is slightly simpler.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installing UNZIP
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
The UNZIP executable is supplied as the binary file UNZIP.MOD, in the
|
|
CMS "PACK" format.
|
|
|
|
You must get the UNZIP.MOD file on to your system as a binary file in
|
|
fixed recording mode, block size 1024.
|
|
|
|
If you are using FTP in CMS, you can get the file in the correct
|
|
format with the LOCSITE and BINARY commands. Assuming that the UNZIP
|
|
executable is stored on the remote site as unz532vm.mod, you could
|
|
issue the following commands
|
|
|
|
FTP where.ever.com
|
|
<enter user id and password and other stuff>
|
|
BINARY
|
|
LOCSITE FIX 1024
|
|
GET unz532vm.mod
|
|
QUIT
|
|
|
|
If you are using a 3270 terminal session to upload from a PC, you can
|
|
upload the file in the correct format with the SEND command:
|
|
|
|
SEND unz532vm.mod A: unz532vm mod a1 (RECFM F LRECL 1024
|
|
|
|
If your 3270 emulator does not have the SEND command, but is a GUI
|
|
application, it may allow you to upload from the menu bar. If so,
|
|
set your options to binary, VM/CMS, fixed record length, and a length
|
|
of 1024 before you upload.
|
|
|
|
When you get the PACKed file on your CMS minidisk, you convert it to
|
|
an executable module by using the COPY command with the UNPACK option:
|
|
|
|
COPY unz532vm mod a unzip module a1 (UNPACK OLDDATE REPLACE
|
|
|
|
You can omit the OLDDATE and REPLACE options if you want to.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installing ZIP
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
The ZIP executable is supplied as the binary file ZIP.MOD, in the CMS
|
|
"PACK" format.
|
|
|
|
You must get the ZIP.MOD file on to your system as a binary file in
|
|
fixed recording mode, block size 1024. Assuming that the file is
|
|
stored as zip22vm.mod, you can get the file the same way you got the
|
|
UNZIP.MOD file:
|
|
|
|
Using FTP:
|
|
|
|
FTP where.ever.com
|
|
<enter user id and password and other stuff>
|
|
BINARY
|
|
LOCSITE FIX 1024
|
|
GET zip22vm.mod
|
|
QUIT
|
|
|
|
Using 3270 file transfer:
|
|
|
|
SEND unz532vm.mod A: unz532vm mod a1 (RECFM F LRECL 1024
|
|
|
|
When you get the PACKed file on your CMS minidisk, you convert it to
|
|
an executable module by using the COPY command with the UNPACK option:
|
|
|
|
COPY zip22vm mod a zip module a1 (UNPACK OLDDATE REPLACE
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installing Documentation
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
Once you have UNZIP running, you can use it to extract documentation
|
|
from ZIP archives.
|
|
|
|
You can transfer the ZIP archives to VMV/CMS as a binary file with any
|
|
record length. A record length of 1 will work fine:
|
|
|
|
via FTP:
|
|
|
|
FTP where.ever.com
|
|
<enter user id and password and other stuff>
|
|
BINARY
|
|
LOCSITE FIX 1
|
|
GET zip22vm.zip zipdoc.zip
|
|
GET unz532vm.zip unzipdoc.zip
|
|
QUIT
|
|
|
|
via 3270 session:
|
|
|
|
SEND zip22vm.zip A: unzipdoc zip a1 (RECFM F LRECL 1
|
|
SEND unz532vm.zip A: zipdoc zip a1 (RECFM F LRECL 1
|
|
|
|
Once you have the ZIP archives, extract the documentation to the minidisk of
|
|
your choice by using the -d option:
|
|
|
|
unzip -a -d A2 unzipdoc.zip
|
|
unzip -a -d A2 zipdoc.zip
|
|
|
|
The "-a" option is required because the documents are archived as
|
|
ASCII text files, but they must be converted to EBCDIC to read them
|
|
in VM/CMS.
|
|
|
|

Notes
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
Different EBCDIC Character Sets
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The documentation may look strange on your system, because UNZIP
|
|
translates from ASCII to "Open Systems" EBCDIC (IBM-1047). Unless
|
|
you are a software developer, you are probably using a different
|
|
kind of EBCDIC (like US EBCDIC, IBM-037). This causes some character
|
|
codes to display as different characters. For example, the character
|
|
codes that display as square brackets in IBM-1047 will display as
|
|
e-acute and a-grave in IBM-037.
|
|
|
|
You can use the IBM ICONV utility to translate documents from one
|
|
character set to another:
|
|
|
|
ICONV old doc a new doc a1 (FROMCODE IBM-1047 TOCODE IBM-037
|
|
|
|
|
|
IND$FILE protocol
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
This is the method by which files are transferred via 3270 sessions
|
|
between PC and mainframe.
|
|
|
|
If you know how to transfer files via 3270 session between PC and
|
|
mainframe, you know as much as you need to know about IND$FILE.
|
|
|
|
If your mainframe has IND$FILE, and your 3270 emulator does file
|
|
transfers, you can use your emulator to transfer files between PC
|
|
and mainframe.
