Nice find.

While we're at it, I just scanned the Oregon Pascal V2.1E manuals for 
RSX, and put them at http://Mim.Update.UU.SE/manuals/pascal

I aim to slowly build up the documentation for all RSX stuff in a 
somewhat ordered fashion there. The fact that it is actually served by 
an RSX machine just makes it more fun.
