/* invariant-character handling --------------------------------------------- */
/*
* These maps for ASCII to/from EBCDIC map invariant characters (see utypes.h)
* appropriately for most EBCDIC codepages.
*
* They currently also map most other ASCII graphic characters,
* appropriately for codepages 37 and 1047.
* Exceptions: The characters for []^ have different codes in 37 & 1047.
* Both versions are mapped to ASCII.
*
* ASCII 37 1047
* [ 5B BA AD
* ] 5D BB BD
* ^ 5E B0 5F
*
* There are no mappings for variant characters from Unicode to EBCDIC.
*
* Currently, C0 control codes are also included in these maps.
* Exceptions: S/390 Open Edition swaps LF and NEL codes compared with other
* EBCDIC platforms; both codes (15 and 25) are mapped to ASCII LF (0A),
* but there is no mapping for ASCII LF back to EBCDIC.
*
* ASCII EBCDIC S/390-OE
* LF 0A 25 15
* NEL 85 15 25
*
* The maps below explicitly exclude the variant
* control and graphical characters that are in ASCII-based
* codepages at 0x80 and above.
* "No mapping" is expressed by mapping to a 00 byte.
*
* These tables do not establish a converter or a codepage.
