----------------------<snip>-----------------
We (TAB of NSW as it was then) had a pair of these old dears(360/44s,
that is). We actually had the 'Commercial Feature" which gave you
LM/STM, BXLE and BXH implemented in hardware, but the storage-to-torage
and packed decimal instructions were all emulated (slowly!) via an IBM
supplied program ( the emulator deck) which was a stand alone program
you had to ipl into extension storage. We were not allowed to use these
instruction in our online system, (not surprisingly!)
----------------------<unsnip>-----------------
We also implemented some S/370 instructions in the emulator. We started
with the "improved" emulator from Florida Power Co. and inserted code
for ICM/STCM.
