Well, I'm open for questions. My only problem is I'm so swamped that my turnaround time is frequently abysmal...
Do you know how many sections the SC40 supports? The KL supports
32. The reason I'm asking is because supporting DECnet in Kermit
turned out to be a far bigger job than I ever expected and my
section zero virtual address space started feeling a little
cramped due to all the .PSECT's
I'm using.
What I did was move all the program help and text into section 1, viz:
@g kermit
@i mem

Well, we'll do the best we can, and I'll learn those limitations. I myself was never a PDP-10 guy; I cut my teeth on PDP-8, PDP-11, and VAX systems. I'm slowly learning TOPS-20 on the SC-40 so we can open it up for giving accounts to people here. (and elsewhere)
