You can specify a Coded Character Set Identifier (CCSID) per text field in File Manager® templates to specify
how text data is represented in the field. This value is used when displaying the text data in the File Manager® editor.
This preference page allows you to map from a CCSID to a corresponding Java encoding. The mapped Java encoding is used
to display the text data while using the File Manager editor. If no CCSID is specified for a field, or no mapped Java encoding
is found for the specified CCSID, then the editor uses the default encoding specified in the editor's options dialogue.

Formatted Editor options affect the behaviour and presentation of data in the File
Manager® editor.
- Group options: Controls the grouping of NOT
SELECTED and SUPPRESSED records when the editor is opened
- Shadow options: Controls the display of EXCLUDED,
NOT SELECTED and SUPPRESSED records when the editor is
opened
- Color settings: Controls the color highlighting of various data
in the editor
- Additional settings:
- Editor record cache size: Controls the number of records being
downloaded (from the host) at a time. The default cache size is 100 and the maximum
allowed is 500. The size of cache affects the performance of the editor; that is, the
larger the size of the record length of the data being downloaded from the host, the
smaller the cache size should be.
- Hex mode on: Turns on the hex display when the editor starts
- Recognize and process ISPF packed data: Unpacks ISPF packed
data when invoking the editor
- Show redefined fields on SNGL or TABL view: Displays redefined
fields in Single and Formatted/Table mode
- Assume text-only in CHAR mode: This option is applicable only when
using formatted editor without a template/copybook. When selected, it assumes the input
text is text-only so it does not attempt to preserve the original value of binary data.
