Characters are not displayed correctly in VSCODE explorer extension #3196

I found I need to specify "encoding": 285 so that £ characters are not changed when edited using zowe explorer. However, a £ character used in a DATA SET name or member name is being presented as $ when using zowe explorer or when returned from a TSO command issued by zowe explorer

Steps to reproduce the behavior: In 3270 create a dataset or member that contains the character £ e.g. MY.DATASET£ or MEMBER£

Connect using VSCODE ZOWE EXPLORER My profile contains "encoding": 285

List the dataset or member under DATA SETS or via command issued from VSCODE Right click on the zosmf profile and issue TSO command listc or issue zowe command in terminal zowe zos-tso issue command "listc"

Expected behavior Expect the character to be displayed the same as it is on mainframe using ISPF or TSO
