Now I have probably missed some important piece of documentation somewhere
that says you're not allowed to do trap 1, mt.cjob in a scheduler loop task
under QDOS, but you are allowed to in SMSQ. The QDOS documentation that I
have doesn't say that you can't do this - but, fair enough, thinking about
it I suppose the call would mess with the job table and might muck things up
when a return is made to the scheduler. OK, that's that, it can't be done.
I accept it. I'm moving on.
But what I would really like is some kind of document that sets out a list
of things that fall in the category: "This should work under QDOS, it says
it should, but it doesn't … but we went ahead and fixed it in SMSQ"
I noticed recently that MOD and DIV work under SMSQ/E with larger numbers than
integers but do not under QDOS. I have never seen any reference to this
difference. This sort of thing could be added to the list of differences.
