Kevin,
The last step is ASSEMBLE. Translater translates the PCODE into
Assembly code. Then in the
Assembly it runs ASM with #16K and assembles the assembly code file into
a ML program. If you
look in QP.B09 you will see {SHELL "ASM #16K "+ asmfile + outfile}. I
think ASM is a Level I assembler,
since I think that the Level II C uses RMA. I think this may be the
problem of why the ML test program
from Pascal ONLY seems to run from whatever the CHX directory is.
