In an ISPF connected CA WA CA 7 Edition terminal session, the EWF is a temporary data set that is acquired only when needed by the interface programs and is deleted when the user exits the editor. It is a temporary data set and it is not retained in the event of abnormal termination, thus the recovery mode setting in the ISPF edit profile is of little benefit.
Although the ISPF editor command to set CAPS OFF is valid in an ISPF connected session, such a setting is effectively ignored because CA WA CA 7 Edition is handling all output to the primary source/target. When the EWF is received, CA WA CA 7 Edition translates all lowercase characters to uppercase prior to update of the active area.
Note: Edit facilities are restricted to character data whether the terminal session is directly connected or ISPF connected. Even though in an ISPF connected session HEX ON can be used to create unprintable hex data, this is strongly discouraged because the response of CA WA CA 7 Edition to such data is unpredictable.
