Index

The DKDRIVER, GKDRIVER, and MKDRIVER drivers permit more than one IO$_DIAGNOSE operation to be active (in the start I/O routine) only when all active operations have the S2DGB$V_AUTOSENSE flag equal to 1. Upon encountering the first IO$_DIAGNOSE with S2DGB$V_AUTOSENSE equal to 0, the class driver will apply the restrictions described in the previous paragraph.

Appendix C
Tables

This appendix includes tables for the DEC Multinational character set and for terminal escape sequences and modes.

C.1 DEC Multinational Character Set

Table C-1 lists the DEC Multinational character set. The DEC Multinational character set is an 8-bit character set with 256 characters. The first 128 characters in the set correspond to the ASCII character set. The VAX EDT Reference Manual lists the graphics for these characters and describes how to enter them from various types of terminals.
