Edit an ASCII Encoded File

The ENDEVOR.cfg file is an ASCII coded file and it needs to stay that way. One method to edit an ASCII file is to use ISPFEDIT. To edit an ASCII file using ISPFEDIT, do the following:

  1. From the ISPF Primary Options Menu access the Utilities menu (Option 3)

    The Utilities Selection panel appears

  2. On the Utilities Selection panel access option 17 (Udlist)

    The z/OS UNIX Directory List Utility opens.

  3. Enter the pathname where the file you want to edit is located and then press Enter. For example, as delivered, the ENDEVOR.cfg is located here: /cai/CADeploy/ESCM/tomcat/webapps/endevor/

    A directory list opens.

  4. Enter EA next to the file you want to edit and press Enter.

    An edit entry dialog appears.

  5. Select the ASCII data option, and any other options necessary, press enter

    The file opens for edit

  6. Make your changes to the file and exit the file.

    Your file is edited and remains an ASCII file.
