Hi Geoff,
I see you have been answered already with several legally based opinions.
The problem with your question is that it is not factually valid. It states
that there definitely has been a breach of the constitution. To establish that
as a fact rather than opinion you will need to

I am in the process of rewriting the USBWiz driver to get around the
problems with supervisor mode that I encountered last year.
The new driver spawns independent jobs to handle reads and writes
asynchronously in the background (because it has to invoke serial IO). I'm
doing the work in QPC2

George,
That had occurred to me as well, but this section of code is definitely
executing in user mode. The job can be manually removed using an S*BASIC
RJOB command or from the QPAC Jobs list. However, I'm sure the clue does
lie in the fact that the trap is not guaranteed atomic.

Hi George,
Interesting. I've never to my knowledge needed the final branch in any of my
programs. With the branch in, the program is not going to do very much until
it eventually decides to stop. Without that anything may presumably occur.

Good evening everybody,
what is the correct way to use the LIB instruction with GWASL (the

From gwasl_text in the zip archive:

This copies the (binary) file filename to the _BIN file.
Ummm how would I calculate an offset to a routine compiled inside

Check the disassembly. I guess D1 is set to 0.

Have you checked that in an actual disassembly or in a debugger or

I was 100% certain, but I went back and checked this and you're right - too
much late night editing!
This solves the mystery, because Job 0 cannot be removed. However, on the
plus side, this problem actually allowed me to develop a tidier method of
managing the spawned jobs.
