Its been a LONG time... But IIRC the 360/30 POPS

There was no 360/30 POPS.


Its been at least 30 years I will yield to your memory. I just remember it giving me a blow by blow description on the format of the instructions and how it worked plus timings. If it was another manual, fine.

had at least some of them

That would be Functional Specifications, FETOM and the like, not POPS.

The book actually had instruction timing specifics for each
instruction.

If you look at the Functional Specifications for several models, you will see that the formulae get progressively more complicated for the faster and newer models. I believe that that's the reason IBM stopped publishing
them. The timings, of course, have nothing to do with the question of
documenting DIAG, which AFAIK has never been in Functional Specifications
but only in the FE manuals.

PS: Please don't quote (">") your original text.



If you have a quibble on how the Apple Mail program works open a PMR with them.

I know of at least 1 other "feature" that doesn't follow spec. Have fun.
