PAL Modified for DECtape Input (552)

8-67

This program is a modification to the Digital 8-3L-S PAL

Assembly Program enabling PAL to obtain the symbolic

program from DECtape (in addition to paper tape) and

outputting the assembled program in the usual manner. (The

symbolic program is written onto DECtape by use of the

"Editor Modified for DECtape" Program.) This modification

also makes it possible to assemble sections or commands from

the keyboard with those from DECtape. The resulting

assembly is limited in speed mainly by the punching of the

assembled program during Pass 2; and Pass 1 is speeded

considerably. Also included is a tabulator interpreter,

providing Pass 3 listings in tabulated format.
