This software consists of a collection of subroutines and a
general purpose program to read from and to write to PROMs with the
Data I/O System 19 Universal PROM Programmer. The inline device driver
is written in MACRO and most subroutines and the utility program
is written in RATFOR Y20.4 (Rational Fortran, submitted to DECUS in
1980 by Robert Denny). For compatibility with users that do not have
the RATFOR preprocessor, a copy of the Fortran sources has also been
providied.

The software is listed in the file PRMBAK.COM which may be used
for transferring all modules from one device to another. A second
command file, PRMAK.COM may be used to build the software. Prior to
this, however, it is necessary to edit the file PRMDRV.MAC and to
insert the correct the vector and CSR address for the serial line unit
port that will be used to communicate with the programmer. There is
no documentation for the utility program PROM.SAV, however, it is
pretty simple, and it does have a HELP command that provides
reasonably detailed instructions.
