Compiling a Translation Table Using the ndmxlt Utility

Before you begin

You can create or modify a translation table tailored to your requirements with the ndmxlt utility program.

To invoke the ndmxlt utility, type the following command at the UNIX prompt:

$ ndmxlt -ssourcefile -ooutputfile [ -rradix] [ -ffiller] -mxlatefile

The parameters for the ndmxlt command are listed in the following table:

Parameter	Description	Values

-ssourcefile	The path and file name of the translation	Path and name of translation
	table source file. If no value is specified,	table
	input is read from STDIN.

-ooutputfile	The path and file name of the translation	Path and name of translation
	table output file.	output file

-rradix	The radix or base of the source file input	x d o

		d—Decimal
		o—Octal
		The default is x.

-ffiller	A filler byte value. The entire table is	Any keyboard character,

		For example, “\0” is null.

-m	The path and file name of a model	Path and file name of the
	translation table. If specified, the model	model translation table
	table is read in and then the input data is
	scanned and applied to the table. This
	capability permits creating a number of
	different tables that are variations from a
	single base table without having to specify
	all 256 bytes of input data for each table.

Example—Creating a Translation Table

About this task

Perform the following steps to create a sample translation table that changes lowercase characters to uppercase characters:

Procedure

1.Make a copy of the sample translation table located at cd_dir/ndm/src/ def_send.sxlt.

2.Open the new translation table with a text editor.
