PREFACE
We at HP are enthusiastic about MPE V/P Delta-1 (E/F.00.01), a general distribution HP 3000
software release. MPE V/P Delta-1 offers you the latest versions of HP 3000 software while retain-
ing the MPE IV -based tables structure. As with MPE V/P, MPE V/P Delta-1 supports disc caching
on a High Performance Series 39, and on Series 42, 48, and 68 systems.
This issue of the Communicator 3000 highlights specific MPE and subsystem changes that have occur-
red since MPE V/E (version G.00.00), released in July 1984. For easy referencing, the manual has
been divided into two different sections.
The first section contains articles relating only to this software release. Leading off is an introductory
article, followed by an article that references information from the MPE V/E Communicator 3000
which also pertains to MPE V/P Delta-1. Next, you will find articles on the Native Language
Support and the Application Message Facility, two products added to the ever growing feature set of
MPE. At the end of the section you will find an article on the size of the directory (of concern for
the installation), an article on SNA NRJE and SNA Link, and articles discussing SPL/3000 and
RPG/3000 enhancements.
The second section contains general information articles, which many of you have requested in your
reader comment sheets from past Communicators. Included is an article on joining Interex (the
International Association of Hewlett-Packard Computer Users), and one on ordering the
Communicator 3000. This section also contains a list of customer publications for the HP 3000 that
are new or recently revised, and the catalog of customer publications.
We hope that you enjoy reading this manual.

REGARDING THIS RELEASE
Regarding this Release
Introduction to MPE V/P Delta-1
By Larry Russell, Computer Systems Division
MPE V/P Delta-1 is a general distribution HP 3000 software release supported on Series 39, 40,
40SX, 42, 44, 48, 64, and 68. This release has been engineered and tested to allow self installation
by customers, thereby improving flexibility and convenience. MPE V/P Delta-1 retains the underly-
ing system tables structure of MPE IV -based system software releases, and supports disc caching on a
High Performance Series 39, and on Series 42, 48, and 68 systems.
In Hewlett-Packard's continuing drive to improve product quality, MPE V/P Delta-1 has been exten-
sively tested on numerous HP 3000s prior to its general release. These tests have been run on systems
in Hewlett-Packard lab and production environments, as well as on machines at customer sites around
the world. Hewlett-Packard increased the engineering time and resources 1t applies to HP 3000 soft-
ware integration and testing to ensure that customer satisfaction will continue to increase.
MPE V/P Delta-1 Supports the Latest Software
MPE V/P Delta-1 offers customers the latest versions of HP 3000 software. Major new enhance-
ments and software fixes are documented in this issue of the Communicator 3000, if they have not
already been described in the Communicator 3000 for MPE V/E (Volume 2, Issue 1). The article en-
titled "A Reference to Other Articles Concerning MPE V/P Delta~1" in this issue explains which ar-
ticles from the MPE V/E Communicator 3000 also apply to MPE V/P Delta-1.
Native Language Support
MPE V/P Delta-1 adds Native Language Support (NLS) to the large and growing feature set of MPE.
NLS allows application programs to be easily designed and written so that end users will experience a
natural, local language interface. With NLS, two users from different countries can access the same
program on the same system, yet communicate with that program in their respective native lan-
guages! NLS will greatly enhance the productivity of applications programmers, because NLS intrin-
sics handle the idiosyncrasies of languages, such as collating sequences, character sets, and formatting
conventions. |
This first release of NLS supports fifteen languages. NLS is offered to HP 3000 customers free-of -
charge as a part of the Fundamental Operating Software. In addition to MPE, the following software
has been enhanced to support NLS: SORT-MERGE, VPLUS, KSAM, IMAGE, QUERY, FCOPY, and
COBOLI. The article entitled "NATIVE LANGUAGE SUPPORT" describes the major features of
NLS.
The Application Message Facility
As a part of the Native Language Support engineering effort, the Application Message Facility is also
provided to give appiications developers additional design flexibility. Customers who do not require
the NLS features may still wish to make use of the Application Message Facility, because it allows ap-
plications programmers to easily define and build message catalogs. These catalogs may contain text
or messages that would normally have been hard coded into the application program. The article en-
titled "APPLICATION MESSAGE FACILITY" describes this product’s functionality.

Regarding this Release
Native Language Support
By Harry Kellogg, Computer Systems Division
HP 3000 Native Language Support (NLS) allows application programs to be designed and written so
that their end users have a natural, local-language interface and locally correct internal processing.
For example, two users from different countries can access a program on the same computer and
communicate in their respective native languages.
The first release of NLS contains 15 supported "languages": there are 14 "real" languages and an ar-
tificial language, called "NATIVE-3000". (NATIVE-3000 may be thought of as "the way it used to
work, before NLS".) Each language is identified by a unique language name and corresponding lan -
guage identification number, as shown below:
0 NATIVE-3000 8 GERMAN
1 AMERICAN 9 ITALIAN
2 CANADIAN-FRENCH 10 NORWEGIAN
3 DANISH 11 PORTUGUESE
4 DUTCH 12 SPANISH
5 ENGLISH 13 SWEDISH
6 FINNISH 41 KATAKANA
7 FRENCH
Each supported native language has been "defined", in the sense that the following characteristics are
known and available with MPE V/P Delta-1:
e Character set supporting the language (includes attribute of each character).
e Upshift and downshift tables.
e EBCDIC translation tables (to and from).
e Collating sequence table.
e Decimal and thousands separators.
e Currency sign and position.
e Month names and abbreviations.
‚eo Weekday names and abbreviations.
e External date and time formats.
e External custom (short) date format.
o Words for "YES" and "NO".
e Additional language-specific information, if necessary.
By running the utility program NLUTIL, you may obtain a complete printout that gives the
definition of all languages configured on your system.

Regarding this Release
This article attempts only to give a brief overview of the new facilities available. For more detailed
information, refer to the Native Language Support Reference Manual (32414-90001).
Native Language Support in MPE computer
The MPE portions of NLS consist of three utility programs and eighteen system intrinsics. These can
be conveniently divided into two major facilities: a native language facility and an application mes-
sage catalog facility. The latter is discussed in a separate article, entitled "APPLICATION MESSAGE
FACILITY".
The Native Language Facility consists of two utility programs, LANGINST and NLUTIL, and fifteen
intrinsics. LANGINST is used by System Managers for selecting the native languages to be supported
on particular systems. NLUTIL, which can be accessed by anyone, is used for obtaining the details of
languages installed on a system.
The 15 "NL" intrinsics can be called to provide the various language-dependent functions and infor-
mation for any language installed on a system. These intrinsics are :
ALMANAC Returns numeric year, month, day of month, and day of week.
NLAPPEND Constructs a file name from a specified string and a specified lan-
guage number (used for VPLUS forms files, application catalogs,
etc).
NLGETLANG Returns "current" languages (system, user, data).
NLINFO Returns all configured information for a language.
NLFMTCLOCK Formats a time of day into a string, according to the requirements
of a specified native language (e.g., "12:27 PM").
NLFMTCALENDAR Formats a specified date into a string (e.g., "FRI, OCT 15,
1982").
NLFMTDATE Formats a specified date and time into a string (e.g., "FRI, OCT
15,1982, 12:27 PM").
NLFMTCUSTDATE Formats a specified date into the "custom" or "short" date form
(e.g., "10/15/82").
NLCONVCLOCK Converts the external time of day string for a language into the
HP 3000 internal CLOCK format.
NLCONVCUSTDATE Converts the external custom (short) date format for a language
into the internal HP 3000 CALENDAR format.
NLREPCHAR Replaces any nondisplayable characters in a string with a sub-
stitute character.
NLSCANMOVE Moves, scans, upshifts, or downshifts the characters in a string
according to the definitions for a language and the nature of the
characters (alphabetic, numeric, etc).
1-5
Regarding this Release
NLCOLLATE Determines the order of two character strings, according to the
collating sequence for a specified language.
NLKEYCOMPARE Compares a partial key to a whole key to determine chance of
match (used with KSAM for generic retrieval).
NLTRANSLATE Performs conversions between national EBCDIC character sets and
HP 8-bit character sets.
Native Language Support in the Subsystems
In addition to providing new utilities and intrinsics in MPE, HP 3000 NLS offers capabilities in the
following subsystem products: KSAM, SORT-MERGE, VPLUS, FCOPY, IMAGE, QUERY, and
COBOLII. As with MPE NLS, the features in these products are intended to provide application
designers and programmers with the tools needed to design local language applications. Thus, it is the
application end user, and not the programmer or subsystem user, who sees the localized interface.
The NLS features in HP 3000 subsystems are, for the most part, implemented through the capabilities
provided by the MPE NLS intrinsics, or internal variants of these intrinsics. Because of this, aspects
of a native language definition within MPE NLS will be consistently reflected across all of the subsys-
tems. Perhaps the best example of this is collating. The collating sequence defined for a particular
native language is directly usable by application programs via the NLCOLLATE and NLKEYCOMPARE
intrinsics. The same collating sequence 1s used by SORT-MERGE in ordering records, by KSAM in
ordering keys, and by IMAGE in ordering sorted chains when these products are dealing with charac-
ter strings that have been associated with the same native language.
The NLS features of each subsystem must be explicitly requested to be invoked. Here is a brief list of
the major capabilities:
SORT-MERGE A new key type, CHARACTER, is introduced; keys of this type are sorted
or merged according to a native language collating sequence, if one is
specified. This capability 1s available programmatically, and from the
stand-alone SORT and MERGE utilities.
VPLUS Several run-time VPLUS functions are native language dependent: date
formatting, numeric formatting, character upshifting, and range check-
ing. These functions are performed relative to the rules of a native lan-
guage, if one has been associated with the forms file in FORMSPEC.
Alternatively, VPLUS allows a forms file to be "international"; at run
time, the application program must call a new intrinsic, VSETLANG, to es-
tablish the native language to be used in processing the forms.
KSAM If a language attribute has been assigned to a KSAM file (through FOPEN
or by using KSAMUTIL), that language’s collating sequence is used in or-
dering any keys of type BYTE.
IMAGE If a language attribute has been assigned to a data base (in the schema or by
using DBUTIL), internal comparisons of type U and X data items will use
the corresponding language's collating sequence. This specifically affects
two areas: the way sorted chains are ordered by DBPUT, and the way con-
current entry-level lock requests are compared in DBLOCK.
1-6
Regarding this Release
QUERY If a language 1s specified by the user, several functions of QUERY are af-
fected. For type U data items, upshifting of user entered data will follow
native language rules; value comparisons for type U and X items in the
retrieval command FIND and other such commands use the appropriate col-
lating sequence. In output reports, sorting of type U and X data items and
formatting of dates and numeric data follow the appropriate language
definition. The language chosen by the QUERY user 1s independent of the
language (if any) of the underlying IMAGE data base.
FCOPY A new "LANG=" parameter influences three functions: upshifting, conver-
sions to and from EBCDIC, and display of characters (the CHAR option).
Upshifting and conversions will follow the appropriate native language
definition; FCOPY will use the corresponding character set definition to
decide which characters are printable, and which must be replaced by a
11 и
= +
COBOLII The syntax and the compiler have been enhanced to give the COBOLII
programmer access to the native language capabilities of SORT-MERGE;
this 1s accomplished in COBOLII using extensions to the COLLATING
SEQUENCE phrase of the SORT and MERGE verbs. Although only
COBOLI has specific enhancements for NLS in this release, most other
programming languages can also use NLS to produce localizable programs.
8-Bit Character Sets
The code assignments for the characters of USASCII are densely packed into the range of Oto 127.
For this reason, USASCII 1s referred to as a "7-bit" code, although USASCII characters (on the HP
3000) are always encoded with 8 bits, the eighth (high-order) bit being set to zero. The following
two new character sets have been built on USASCII, adding new characters with code values in the
range of 161 to 254:
e ROMANS (for Western European-based languages).
e KANAS (for Katakana, or phonetic Japanese).
These character sets are referred to as "extended character sets" or "8-bit character sets".
NLS supports USASCII peripherals as well as a wide variety of peripherals configured for 8-bit opera-
tion with ROMANS or KANAS. Peripherals configured for any of the 7-bit substitution sets are not
supported by NLS. (These substitution sets are similar to USASCII, but differ from it, in that up to
twelve characters that contain replacement characters needed for a particular local language.)
Appendix C, "PERIPHERAL SUPPORT", in the Native Language Support Reference Manual
(32414-90001) contains information on supported terminals and printers, including how to change
the configuration (if necessary) from 7-bit to 8-bit. Appendix D, "CONVERTING 7-BIT TO 8-BIT
DATA", documents a set of conversion utilities available for the one time conversion of 7-bit
(European) data to 8-bit ROMANS data in a variety of file types.

Application Message Facility
By Larry Cargnoni, Computer Systems Division
Native Language Support’s Application Message Facility gives the applications designer the versatility
to create message catalogs. These catalogs enable users to run a single application in different
countries, with no need to have multiple copies of the application and no need to modify hard-coded
messages and recompile code. Message catalogs can contain text/messages (prompts, error messages,
etc) that are hard-coded into application programs; several message catalogs can be created, each con-
taining identical messages that are translated into several languages.
There are two major components to the Native Language Support (NLS) Application Message
Facility:
e The GENCAT utility program for creating and maintaining application message catalogs.
e The CATOPEN, CATREAD, and CATCLOSE intrinsics for accessing application message catalogs.
A message catalog is an MPE ASCII file, called a "source catalog", that contains character strings
(messages). It is created with EDIT/3000 or a compatible editor, and it may contain 8-bit charac-
ters. A source catalog is identifiable by a set number and message number within each set, as shown
below in the examples of English and Spanish catalogs:
$SET 1 Prompts and Commands $SET 1 Mandatos
1 ENTER FIRST NAME 1 ENTRE SU NOMBRE DE PILA
2 ENTER LAST NAME 2 ENTRE SU APELLIDO
3 ENTER STREET ADDRESS 3 ENTRE SU DIRECCION
SSET 2 Error Messages $SET 2 Avisos de errores
1 UNKNOWN COMMAND 1 MANDATO DESCONOCIDO
2 NAME NOT FOUND 2 NOMBRE NO ENCONTRADO
3 DEVICE UNAVAILABLE 3 DISPOSITIVO INACCESIBLE
As you can see, the message sets and their respective messages are delimited by various directives (i.e.
$SET) and identifying numbers. The GENCAT utility program reads the source catalog, and
GENCAT creates the actual "formatted" catalog using these directives and numbers. GENCAT for-
mats the catalog so that it requires minimal disc space (for example, trailing blanks are deleted) for
efficient storage. (See Figure 1-1, next page.) GENCAT also formats the catalog so that it has the
ability to locate and retrieve any given message with minimal disc accesses via an internal directory.
(Significant formatting improvements were achieved over the existing MPE message facility.)

The GENCAT program also has a facility for merging a "master" source file and a "maintenance"
source file. (The maintenance source file is a file that contains changes to the master source file.)
One uses this facility when updating a version of the "master" source file. For example, by translat-
ing the maintenance file and then using GENCAT to merge the resulting local-language maintenance
file with the local-language master file, the update would be performed.
Application programs access the catalog messages via the CATOPEN, CATREAD, and CATCLOSE intrin-
sics: CATOPEN opens a catalog, CATREAD reads the catalog (this may be done by optionally specifying
one to five message parameters with CATREAD; these parameters are inserted into the retrieved text},
and CATCLOSE closes the catalog originally opened. (See Figure 1-2, below.) The message itself con-
tains special characters that control the locations and order in which the message parameters from
CATREAD are substituted, before routing the catalog to its destination. Each intrinsic is readily call~-
able from COBOLII, FORTRAN, Pascal, and SPL.

Regarding this Release
It should be pointed out that NLS does not explicitly link application message catalogs to configured
native languages. The catalogs are merely MPE files that are known to applications and accessible
through the "CAT" intrinsics. It 1s likely that an application localized for several languages will have
a separate message catalog for each of these languages.
A naming convention can be followed for catalogs containing identical messages that translate into
several languages. The convention allows the catalog name to be composed of a string, one to five
characters long, appended with a three-digit language identification number specific to each native
language. For example, the original, unlocalized messages might be stored in a catalog named
APCATOOO; the catalog APCATOO8 would contain the same messages in German, and the catalog
APCATOI12 would contain the same messages in Spanish. This makes it possible for the application
program to determine which catalog to open at run time. {If this naming convention is followed, the
NLAPPEND intrinsic may be used to form the catalog file name once the language number is
determined.)
One final note: application message catalogs are tools provided for the support of readily localizable
messages. There may be some information (such as time and date skeletons accessible through NLS in-
trinsics) that might be more appropriately stored in other formats. An application can use whatever
file structure(s) is suitable to store language-dependent information. An application program may
also use the same naming conventions for these files. The important principle is that these data
should be stored external to the application code itself.

SNA NRJE and SNA Link
By Bob Stassen, Information Networks Division
Two new data communication products, SNA NRJE and SNA Link, together allow the HP 3000 to
emulate the functions of an IBM 8100 DPPX/RJE workstation. Architecturally, this workstation is
an SNA Physical Unit Type 2, Logical Unit Type 1 network node. SNA NRJE works concurrently
with DS networking and other HP applications software to provide an integrated, multivendor net-
work solution.
SNA Link includes an INP, cable, and the software to implement the lower three layers of SNA
(which roughly corresponds to the lower four layers of the ISO Open Systems Interconnect Model.)
SNA NRIJE performs batch communications over the SNA Link. The new Network Configuration
Checkout (NCC) process enables an SE to analyze the host and HP 3000 configurations before the in-
stallation, to ensure successful multivendor communications. Through interaction with the On-Line
Support Group, the SE can evaluate the customers host communication requirements and provide the
support needed to maintain the environment necessary for SNA communication between the host and
the HP 3000.
Features
SNA NRJE and SNA Link provide the following features:
e The ability for the HP 3000 to communicate into the SNA environment, via emulation of an IBM
8100 DPPX/RIJE workstation.
e Support for line speeds of up to 56 Kbps.
e Support for concurrent communication to multiple hosts or multiple lines to a single host.
e Intrinsics for most SNA NRIJE user and operator commands.
e A gateway between HP networks and IBM SNA networks.
e The ability to run concurrently with other HP 3000 applications and support all HP peripheral
equipment.
Functional Description
SNA NRIJE communicates to an IBM SNA network by emulating and IBM 8100 DPPX/RJE worksta-
tion. Once an SNA session has been established, input and output data may traverse the network.
"Virtual readers", which are MPE spooled output devices, hold submitted jobs until they are trans-
mitted to the host. Work stations receive output data sets from the host via "logical writers". When
communications with the host exist, job input spool files are transmitted to a host system as logical
card reader data streams. Job output data is received from the host system in logical printer and
punch data streams and formatted into spool files for output at the workstation.
A workstation and host communicate with each other in an "LU-LU session". The job entry system
at the host, JES2, is also an LU. In an LU-LU session between a workstation and a host, NRIJE
retrieves job input data, translates and compresses it when requested, prefixes SNA format headers,

and passes 1t to SNA Link on the HP 3000. SNA Link transmits the data to the host. A spool file
containing job input data is retained until it is successfully transmitted.
NRJE uses the console command and message stream between a workstation and JES2. An NRIJE
Operator uses the console to send commands and receive messages. All JES2 commands configured for
a workstation are permitted.
NRIJE can be accessed two ways, interactively and programmatically. Interactive access is through
the NRJE subsystem command interpreter. Programmatic access is through a user-written program
that calls NRJE intrinsics. Most NRJE commands correspond with intrinsics.

SPL/3000 Enhancements
By Larry Dino, Computer Language Lab
Several enhancements have been made to version A.08.04 of the SPL compiler. Version A.08.04 is
released on MPE V/E (G.00.00) and MPE V/P Delta~1 (E/F.00.01). Most of the enhancements are
privileged mode instructions that are used to move data between data segments. These instructions
are MOVEX, SPLIT, NOSPLIT, WITH, and DATASEG. Following is a brief description of each of these
statements; for more detail, refer to version E0284 of the Systems Programming Language Reference
Manual (30000-90024):
MOVEX Depending on the move, one of three machine instructions is generated:
MFDS Move from extra data segment to stack.
MTDS Move from stack to extra data segment.
MDS Move between extra data segments.
SPLIT Option SPLIT or the compiler directive $SPLIT allows the DB register to point to
the base of the extra data segment (versus the user process stack), while the DL
register and all other data registers remain associated with the user stack.
NOSPLIT The compiler directive $NOSPLIT can be used to reset $SPLIT.
WITH WITH 1s intended specifically for users running in split-stack mode. The WITH
statement is used to reference a particular data segment.
DATASEG The DATASEG declaration is used to define an extra data segment.
An enhancement to the MOVE and SCAN statements returns the number of bytes/words that have been
moved to the user. All the enhancements are fully downward compatible, which means that existing
programs will continue to compile as before.

the necessary portions of the MPE V tables can be dumped onto a disc file, and the problem port can
be reset without the need to halt system operation for a memory dump and WARMSTART.
TERMDSM runs in an MPE session, invoked either locally or through a dial-up port. TERMDSM
will perform the following:
e Run diagnostics on one or more ports.
e Abort jobs or 1/0.
e Reset one or more ports and associated tables.
o Display tables and dump (to a disc file) tables for later analysis.
e Format failure information dumped by the ATP/ADCC software.

Update #2 allows 32 HP 3081A terminals to be attached to the HP 2333A cluster controller.
Modifications have been made in the MPCONF 1G and MPL INE syntax to allow for these changes. Serial
printers can be connected either to the HP 2624B terminals that are configured in printer pass-
through mode or to the HP 2333A cluster controller. The line can now be configured to run as either
odd parity (same as older versions), or as no parity. When configured as no parity, 8-bit codes can be
sent to the HP terminals that refuse to recognize 8-bit data when configured for anything but
parity=none. The user can now specify in the MPCONF IG generated configuration file a timeout to be
used when waiting for a response to a poll or selection of a device.
