Subject: RE: Fixing VMSDEH
It would appear that once upon a time, VMSMIT.HEX used four byte addressing
with a ":" as the record header. This fix:
;++
;1.1.01
;Updated March 9, 1898, by Susan Webb and Jerry Holliday of Lockheed Aircraft
;Systems Co, Marietta, GA, to work for files longer than 64K. Added lines
;marked with ";JH".
was to convert two more address bytes after the conversion loop near label
NAB:. The way I read the code, ":" says to convert two address bytes, the
Webb/Holliday fix converted two more giving a total of four.
The VMSMIT.HEX that I pulled from KERMSRV a few weeks ago had "<" as the
record header. Since ('<' == ':'+2) that says (to me) four byte addressing.
The result was that the Webb/Holliday fix ended up consuming the record
type byte and the first byte of data.
My fix is to remove their fix...
