Cardreader Subroutine for Disk Editor
8-381

Herbert Steiger, Medical Institute fur Lufthygiene,
Duesseldorf, Germany

The program allows for the use of a cardreader as input with
the editor. The high speed reader is replaced by the card-
reader. All other input and output equipment can be used
without any changes.

After every card a CR is produced to end the line. The read-
in is terminated by a CTRL/FORM, when 40 cards have been
read. By doing this the overflow of the textbuffer is avoided
and there is room for possible changes.
