They are the oldest files that have been found, as far as I know. According to Woods, they are the Crowther version. > Did anybody suggest the following fix to put a blank in the carriage > control position?? > > 998 FORMAT(1H ,20A5) Thanks, that did the trick! I see that the data file from which the strings are read do prefix all strings with a space character. So it looks like the intent is that FORMAT(20A5) should do the right thing. Maybe the root cause is in the code reading the data file. But your suggestion is a good workaround. _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list Simh@trailing-edge.com http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
