- Former user (Deleted)
Description
The MESSAGE option specifies the text to write to the z/OS operator console.
The text is written as a WTO or WTOR message, as specified by the REPLY option.
Note
Even though Universal WTO executes in the z/OS Unix System Services environment, not all USS supported characters are supported in the console character set. Refer to IBM MCS Console documentation for character set support. Unsupported characters are translated to blanks when written to the console.
