Documentation
Definition
Function selection for the case where a code page converter encounters a character that has been defined in the output code page as to be left out.
This function selection defines right from the start, what the converter must do if such a situation occurs. The following values are possible:
'.'
('stop') The conversion is terminated and an error message is created.
'M'
('like_miss') A character like this is treated like incomprehensible bytes in the input buffer. Either replacement characters are output, or an error message is created.
'R'
('remove') Such characters are removed, and nothing is written to the output buffer for this.
'S'
('space') Such characters are replaced with blanks. Although this does not look so good on screen, the layout of a text is retained.

Example
The most import usage here is for converting code page 1810 to 1800. Here, control codes for the writing direction may exist.
