Re: /real/ programmers...[OFFTOPIC]
You got me alright! But then I haven't even seen a PDP 11 since early 1985. BTW,
do you remember the 47's test? As far as I recall, you loaded 004747 into some
memory location,
and set its address into R7 ...

Probably.

Hmmm. You might be caught in your trap for a long time. Can't recall the details,
apart from that you've placed each
instruction at an address eqaul to its opcode. Can that do anything?
