This system variable returns the IANA name of the default code page
which is internally used by Natural for conversions to and from Unicode and
which is set by the Natural profile parameter CP.
Note:*CODEPAGE is also the default if a code
page is not specified in a MOVE ENCODED
statement.
Example:

*INIT-ID contains the terminal ID (defined
according to the conventions of the TP system) of the terminal from which
Natural was invoked.
In batch mode, *INIT-ID contains the step
name of the Natural job.
In an asynchronous Natural session under Com-plete or UTM,
*INIT-ID contains the terminal ID of the task that
has started the asynchronous session.
In an asynchronous session under CICS,
*INIT-ID contains the CICS task number of the
asynchronous task.
In a server environment, for example, Natural Development Server or
Web I/O Interface
Server, *INIT-ID contains the current
session number, which is incremented by one for each new session that is
invoked on the server.

This system variable contains the name of the program (transaction) that is currently executing as Natural.
In batch mode under z/OS, *INIT-PROGRAM

Note:
Instead of *OPSYS, it is recommended
that the system variables *MACHINE-CLASS,
*HARDWARE
and *OS be
used, as they allow a more precise distinction of the environment in which
Natural is running.
