Re: Respooling from text file with *PRTCTL

I had to respool a file from a mainframe. *FCFC made it easier. Record
was blank after 75, but record length convinced the laser printer to rotate
to landscape. Using OVRPRTF would have mae the process easier, in
hindsight. But, the R code to regenerate the spool file was easy enough.
Looks like the same technique would be as easy.

I've always used *FCFC when converting spool to text and back again.

But, I now have to work with an existing process where I may need to
respool a provided text file that was created with *PRTCTL.

I don't see a way to do this. CRTPRTF and OVRPRTF don't support *PRTCTL.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.
