Conversion INF-catalogue <--> PLAM library

FC2 CON: file1 [, file2] [, P]

Conversion ISAM --> PLAM

file1 CFS information catalogue (ISAM-file).

file2 PLAM library (target).

If file2 is not specified, a temporary library is created that will be copied to file1 at the end of the conversion.

The content of the information catalogue is transferred to PLAM library file2. This library may already exist. If not, a new library is created. For each file description one element in library file2 is created: S/xxxx. If the file description consists of more than one screen page (more than one ISAM-record), the corresponding data in the library element are separated by records containing $NEW PAGE.

Conversion PLAM --> ISAM

file1 PLAM library.

file2 CFS information catalogue. If file2 was not specified, a temporary information catalogue is created that will overwrite the PLAM library file1 at the end of the conversion.

The content of the elements in PLAM library file1 is transferred into information catalogue file2. The information catalogue may already exist. If not, a new information catalogue is created. For each library element t/xxxxx one or more ISAM records with key xxxxx are written into the information catalogue file2. More than one record is written, if the library element contains separating control records $NEW PAGE.

P If this option is specified, also the element type is transferred into the ISAM-key of the records in the information catalogue. An INF-catalogue created in this way can only be used for the documentation of elements of a PLAM library.
