FS[IZE]=

Specifies how much space (filesize) to

filesize

allocate for the target file. If the target file

 

has fixed length records, filesize is in

 

records. If the target file has variable length

 

records, filesize is the number of

 

maximum size records. This option can be

 

used instead of the HP 1000 file descriptor

 

size parameter to specify the size of an

 

HP 1000 target file.

 

Default: The target file will be the same size

 

as the source file.

IN[TERCHANGE]

Overrides the default copy format and causes

 

the file or files to be copied using Interchange

 

Format.

 

Default: DSCOPY will use Transparent

 

Format. Interchange Format is also used if

 

the ASCII, BINARY, FIXED, FSIZE,

 

RSIZE, STRIP, or VARIABLE options are

 

specified.

RS[IZE]=

Specifies the record size (recordsize) in

recordsize

bytes. If fixed length records are being

 

produced, recordsize is the size of each

 

record. If variable length records are being

 

produced, recordsize limits the size of the

 

largest record. DSCOPY will issue a warning

 

if it must truncate records in order to execute

 

this option.

 

Default: The target file will have the same

 

record size as the source file.

ST[RIP]

Strips any record padding from the ends of

 

records. You can use this option to create

 

variable length records from fixed length

 

records. (Also see the VARIABLE option.)

 

The type of padding to strip is based on the

 

type of the source file. For HP 1000 type 4

 

files, spaces are stripped. In other HP 1000

 

file types, null characters are stripped. You

 

can use this option in conjunction with

 

RSIZE to truncate records. Records will be

 

truncated before padding is stripped.

 

Default: Padding is not stripped.

VA[RIABLE]

Specifies that source file records should be

 

formed into variable length records. The

 

maximum size of a variable length record may

 

be given using the RSIZE option.

 

Default: For HP 1000 type 1 or 2 files, the

 

target file will have fixed length records. For

 

all other HP 1000 file types, the target file

 

will have variable length records.

The next four options can be used when a file is copied using Transparent Format. They can also be used in conjunction with Interchange Format options.
