Better than nothing, but definitely not exhaustive. I know... But that's
the only thing I have apart from sources.

Thanks. That gives parameter code points. It
doesn't seem to give request function codes, nor how the message is encoded. NICE
standard formatting seems plausible but the standard doesn't require that.

I'm thinking it would be nice (in the tools
with PyDECnet) to be able to do not just standard NICE requests like any other NCP, but
also system-specific ones.
I can find out what the RSTS ones look like, but I don't know about other systems.
I'm pretty sure that both VMS and RSX have system-specific requests, SHOW and/or SET,
for things like network objects or logical links and perhaps other stuff. Is there
documentation that describes these? Does anyone have information handy?
A few days ago VMS listings (from fiche) appeared in Bitsavers, and I suppose I can try
to read NCP listings that are in there. Chances are they are in BLISS which I don't
know at all...
