Operand Descriptions
Common Operands and Keywords
The following operands and keywords are common to a number of orders.
hexstring
Specifies a hexadecimal string. A hexstring can be in either of the following
forms:
'nnnnnn'X
X'nnnnnn'
Where each n is a number in the range of 0-9oracharacter in the range of A
- F. An even number of n values, up to 254, must be specified.
Before processing, the hexstring is converted to the corresponding character
string.
When used as an input order operand, hexstring acts as a literal to be used as
input.
position.length
The starting position and number of characters to be processed.
Position indicates the starting character within the line. By default, position is
counted from the first character of the line. For input orders, the starting point
for the count can be modified by the global orders.
