Mc:.nual Summaries

This chapter describes each manual in the RSTS/E set.
If this is your first time using RSTS/E. you may wonder which manual to read first.

The RSTS/l!7 System User's Gu.ide is a good place to start. It provides general rules
for using the DIGITAL COlnmand Language (DCL) on RSTS/E systems and describes
DCL comn1EIl1ds for file. systenl. and programming operations. This manual also contains a glossary of tern1S used throughout the RSTS/E documentation set.
If you plan to install the systenl. read the RS'TSIE V9.0 Release Notes and then con-

sult the RSTS/E S:vstem Installation and Update Guide.
If you need to know the fundamentals of BASIC programming, read the Introduction

to BASIC.
If you need infornlation on a particular topic or are upgrading to V9.0. the sunl1naries
in this chapter list the nlajor topics covered in each manual. The summaries also note
changes in their contents and organization for this release.

Order numbers marked "Iupdate)" indicate a set of replacement pages to insert into
the manual. When you order a manual that has an update package, include order nunlbers for both the manual and the update package.

RSTS/E System Directives Manual
AA-EZI0A-TC

This manual describes RSTS/E run-tin1e systems as well as monitor and emulator directiives. The directives perform such operations as input and output. changing the
n1en10ry size allocated for a progran1. accessing resident libraries. and switching to a
new run-tilne system. These operations (and others described in the manual) are useful
for assen1bly language progran1mers on RSTS/E.
Topics include:
•

General n10nitor directives. which let you open. close. read. and write files and
perform other systeln functions. Some of these directives. called UUOs. correspond to the BASIC system function calls described in the RSTS/E Programming
Manual. The RSTS/E System Directives Manual provides information on data
passed and returned for each UUO, but refers you to the RSTS/E Programming
Manual for a complete description of the call.

•

RSX emulator directives. which are useful if you are coding a program to run
under the RSX run-time system.

•

RTl1 emulator directives. which are useful if you are coding a program to run
under the RTll run-time system.

In addition to chapters on the directives. the manual contains appendixes on error
messages. disk device sizes. and a sUlnmary of MODE and RECORD modifiers 'for
various devices.

RSTS/E RMS-ll Utilities Manual
AA-P509A-TC
The RSTS/E RMS-l1 Utilities Manual is a reference for the utility programs that
RMS supports on RSTS/E and other PDP-II operating systems. The utilities let you
interactively define. nlanipulate. and maintain RMS-II files without having to access
full RMS capabilities.
Topics include:
e

RMSDES. which lets you design and create RMS files

RMSIFL, which reads RMS file records and loads them into an indexed file

RMSCNV, which reads RMS file records and loads them into any type of RMS
file

RMSDSP, which displays a description of an RMS file (including backup files)

RMSBCK. which copies an RMS disk file to a backup tape or disk

RMSRST. which restores RMSBCK files

••

RMSDEF, which lets you define RMS file attributes. RMSDES replaced this utility. however. RMSDEF is still supported.
