Re: [OT] Open Source File Utilities now available

Think I've got it....

after a number of attempts at trying to make it fail, I succeeded.  
Damn, I hate this internationalization stuff!

It seems both the source file and the job have to be in CCSID(285)

So, do the following:
CHGJOB CCSID(285)

Then re-compile the source member FUTIL4.64 and then do the
CALL FUTIL4.64 yourlib
again

Good luck!
