Dan,

No, it was automatically handled on the S/34 too, and most likely the
S/32 and S/3 as well.  All you had to do was set the SSP option and
specify which translation table you wanted.  I normally just used
#96E48 with a 48-character belt on the line printer.

Unless you mean by not being "automatic" that it had to be explicitly
setup under CNFIGSSP if you wanted it on a system-wide basis.  

You could also override it on a job level basis by using // IMAGE.  I
initially had to do this at one place I worked, because the manager
didn't want to add it to CNFIGSSP thinking it would slow down the
system.

Another fun things was OCL listings with all the ?'s missing...
