Editor Modified for DECtape (552)

8-66

Robin B. Wadleigh, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore,

This program consists of modifications to the Digital 8-1-S

symbolic Editor to enable reading and writing on DECtape.

This results in considerable time savings in assembling PAL

programs since PAL has also been modified to accept the

symbolic program directly from DECtape. The DECtape

compatability is also useful for storing text for later use and

for regaining Editor memory space lost due to delete and

change commands.

In addition, the overflow detection routine is now foolproof

and results in a HALT.
