[MAP]

This option has not yet been implemented. It will provide for obtaining load-time information in addition to that supplied by LOGIC.

[NOGO]

Instructs the Loader to inhibit execution of the program after loading. It does not affect the LOGIC option.

[FILES]

A list of files showing the I/O unit assignments made by the Loader, and any mounting instructions, is always prepared for the operator. If this option is specified, a duplicate of the file list is written on SYSOU1.

[secondary.identifier]

The information in these columns will appear in the page headings of all output prepared on SYSOU1.

C. *FILE Card

  1. Format

    The format of the *FILE card is, with two exceptions, the same as that specified in the 709/7090 IOCS reference manual. That is,

1-6         7-11    14-15    17    18-21    22-25    27-35      38-41
deck.name   *FILE   file.no  M     unit1    unit2    controls   reel.seq

44-48           51-53        55-72
file.serial      ret.days    File name

The two exceptions are:

a) The file number (file.no) is assigned to each file by the Compiler and appears with the file name on the listing provided by the Compiler. In this card the field does not occupy column 13.

b) The unit (unit1 and unit2) specification has been modified to include relative unit assignment, symbolic channels, and tape transport model type. The card fields have been enlarged from three to four columns: columns 18-21 for unit1 and columns 22-25 for unit2.

Appendix 90.08 contains a chart showing how the options of the Environment FILE and SPECIF cards are used by the Compiler in preparing the *FILE card.

  1. Unit specifications (unit1, unit2)

    The notation employed in explaining these options is:

    Symbol Denotes
    X one of the real channels A, B, ..., H
    P a symbolic (unspecified physical) channel S, T, ..., Z
    k one of the unit numbers 1, ..., 9, 0
    m a tape transport model number, II or IV
