This system was developed to complement the DEC system

monitor, not supplant it. It allows the programmer to use the

disk as a true random access memory, without regard to block

storage, etc. The system is not file oriented. The routines

have been written to assure that they do not touch the user

program except when commanded to do so. Also, it allows

the user to enter floating point constants or change floating

point variables in decimal notation.
