Hi Dilwyn,
I have not looked at my paper copy of the manual, just used the PDF version.
According to the PDF version:
IOF.POSA D0=$42
IOF.POSR D0=$43
as you stated, there is no entry for D0=$44
I have a look at my hard copy version of SMS Technical Manual. There is
no mention of a IOF.TEST, even though the same page in Section 5.3
refers to IOF.TEST
I looked in the older QDOS Technical Manual, nothing like IOF.TEST
This is looking like a major fault in the documentation, I suppose the
best way to resolve this is to look at the SMSQ/E Sources and determine
what the missing Trap call should be.
Unless anybody knows what IOF.TEST is defined as I will find out and
issue an update.
Regards,
Derek

In my printed copy of Jochen's QDOS/SMS Reference Guide, iof.posa and
iof.posr also have the same key (d0=$42, whereas iof.posr should be $43
All the other $4x trap #3s are defined leaving only $44, which must be
iof.test

That is great - any contributions to correct errors in the text are of
course welcome, so that they can be incorporated into the free online
version of the manual!

I have been converting the QDOS/SMS Reference Manual PDF manual to
work on my Kindle, using Sigil to convert the screen copied text to
epub -> mobi. This for my reference.
I have nearly finished and corrected some obvious mistakes.
However, there is a little problem in the manual:
Section 5.2 File I/O, Page 3, Last Paragraph:
<quote>
The IOF.FLSH and IOF.TEST commands are subtly different: IOF.FLSH
ensures that all write operations are complete, whereas IOF.TEST
ensures that all write and read operations (including
prefetches) are complete.

I can not find any reference to IOF.TEST
Should this be IOB.TEST ?

Derek
