CONTENTS OF TAPE:
INDEX:FORTRAN CROSS REFERENCER V6.4
This version contains mostly bug fixes and minor enhancements
to the version submitted on the last fall tape. The most
significant enhancement's to this version are: 1) that it does
not expand to 32K words in size on start up, rather it gives
itself a certain minimum symbol table space and expands itself
only if more space is required. 2) the document has been
enhanced.
Unlike the previous submission, no last minute inclusion of
the latest bells and whistles has been made. Rather this version
has been let to age to see if any bugs crop up so I do not
forsee frantic patches being sent to the MULT-TASKER this time.
SUPERMAC:STRUCTURED PROGRAMMING MACROS
Taken from a previous sig tape, I have enhanced parts of the
SUPERMAC macro's:
$CALL and CALLG now permit a limited amount of
computation to be included in the argument lists.
The addition of a new construct
CONDITIONAL-SELECT-SELECT-...-[OTHERWISE]-END
that is actually a way of doing
IF-elseif-elseif-[else]-endif
in assembly.
FRAG:DISK FRAGMENTATION STATISTICS
Take from a previous sig tape and modified so that it is no longer
a privilaged task and can handle large disks (over 64K Blocks)
properly.
3D PLOTTING ROUTINES.
3-D Plotting Package
This supplimental set of subroutines, was written
to use the ZETA supplied plotting routines to generate
3-D plots. Based on the CACM (Collected algorithms of the ACM)
algorithm number 483 "Masked Three Dimensional Plot Program
With Rotations [J4]".
Included is a copy of the original CACM algorithm and a sample
driver routine for the 3-D plotting package.
HP11C UTILITY ROUTINES:CONVERT TO/FROM FLOATING POINT BINARY FORMAT
Included is a listing of 2 HP-11C programable calculator programs
that will convert floating point numbers between decimal form
and PDP-11/VAX single precision binary form.
