Abstract: This is a two-page handler for the OS/8 operating system

which generates and displays alphanumerics on a storage oscilloscope

using a standard VC8E controller. Keyboard paging is used to erase the

screen when it fills up, and optionally, to return to the monitor. Because

of variations in the design of this interface, several versions of this

handler have been developed:

A: Early design with XYZ outputs & non-standard erase

B: Later design using the enable register for erasing

C: Optional modification to A to permit CTRL/C checks

D: Optional modification to B to check for read calls
