The only other question is how to determine the device

name of the
program file which is open on channel 17 since it is overlaid. The
manual states that
.DStatus EMT is available, but ignores the .CStatus EMT, except by
default which
leads me to interrupt that such information is not available under
RSTS/E. Is anyone
familiar with the RSTS/E RT-11 run time system? Was .CStatus ever added for
support. The possible solution is to default to assuming the
program is on the system
device, SY:, which is already known to work. I can place a -1 in
the .CStatus area
before the EMT request and if that value is still there, use SY: for
the device name.
Disappointing, but not much of any other option I can think of. Can
anyone else
suggest something I have missed?
Not sure why you need to change what MACRO/CREF are already doing;
they work as is under RSTS. If you're fixing a Y2k bug the file
chaining code, and for that matter the rest as well, works just as
well under RSTS as it does under RT. I would think the best approach
is not to change anything, unless it specifically addresses a bug.
