SEPOINTS DELETED IN MSOS
5.1
The SEPOINT MIBUF was eliminated in MSOS 5. 1.
Programs with calls to MIBUF
I
must be recoded before running under MSOS 5. 1.
1.6 LIMITATIONS
1.6.1
MSOS
MSOS 5.1 does not support 852 disk drives.
I
Character I/O is not allowed on 659 tape transports.
The following MMTC status bits
are edited into the existing parity bit in the UST.
Parity errors
Phase encoded errors
Cyclic redundancy errors
Memory flag bit errors
MSOS converts the CDC 64-character subset of ASCII only.
Therefore, opening and
closing braces must be represented by 16 and
b
1 punches, respectively.
A ~ punch in column 1 is interpreted by CDC card readers as an end-of-file card.
Therefore a
~
punch (left brace in Hollerith, quotation mark in ASCII) in column 1 of
card input causes an end-of-file indication.
If
the operator switches the system list or punch output unit to a tape drive while APC
is running, an occasional internal control record may be written on the tape.
If
the
tape is listed or punched while APC is running (that is, with a tape copy statement),
APC removes the extraneous records.
If
the tape is listed or punched without APC,
the extraneous records are printed as extra lines in the listing or punched as extra
cards in the output deck.
1.6.2
COMPASS
When using nested conditionals or macros, the number of lines tagged with IF Z or
IFN may not be accurate.
However, the assembly is correct and the program does
execute properly.
1.6.3
FORTRAN
The user can DIMENSION in all TYPE statements except TYPE other.
