The data sheet for the SGS-Thomson 2716 here :

http://ee-classes.usc.edu/ee459/library/datasheets/2716.pdf

says that you apply Vpp and keep it applied, set 
up address and data (with G/, pin 20, more
commonly called output enable, high and E/P low) 
and then program each location by taking the E/P 
pin
(Pin 18, more commonly called chip enable) high 
for 50ms.

That is what I remember doing. You didn't have to 
pulse Vpp.

Yup; I still have a 2716 programmer I cobbled 
together for my PET and it just has a manual DIP 
switch (and LED) to turn Vpp on/off.before and 
after programming. To be sure, there were 
different versions but none pulsed Vpp AFAIK.
