4.
A buffered typewriter driver has been added for system use.
Therefore, the
operator may not clear typewriter messages (with the CLEAR switch) without
risking destruction of other messages that may be stacked in the internal
buffer.
5.
Date and time are both required parameters during autoloading.
6.
SELECT JUMP 5 is used to enter operator statements after a JOB statement
is processed from the standard input.
7.
Operator termination of a recovery dump has been altered for MSOS 5.0.
The operator must press MANUAL INTERRUPT, type TERM, FG. ND, and press
MANUAL INTERRUPT.

ANS I FORTRAN DIFFERENCES
1.
Programs compiled under MSOS 4. 2 that reference any of the following library
I
routines must be recompiled under MSOS 5. 1.
I
ALOG
ALOG10
ATAN
COS
EXP
LOCATE
SQRT
SIN
This requirement is caused by changes in entry-point names to allow ANSI
FORTRAN and MS FORTRAN to reside on the same library.
1.5 SYSTEM ENTRY POINTS (SEPOINT)
I
Several changes were made to SEPOINTs in MSOS 5.0 that may affect programs running
I
under MSOS 4.2.
Certain SEPOINTs remained the same but the information returned
was changed; other SEPOINTs were eliminated but equiva.lent SEPOINTs were established;
and still others were eliminated with no equivalent present.
Programs that use any of
these SEPOINTs must be investigated and possibly recoded to produce acceptable results
under MSOS 5. 1.
Refer to the MSOS version 5 Reference Manual for table structures
and calling sequences.
1.5.1
UNCHANGED SEPOINT NAMES
The following SEPOINT names were unchanged, but the information returned or other
changes were made.
