Even then, the latest man page for /usr/ucb/ls (Page 1, Feb. 1989) still
insists on, that -F will mark symbolic links with '@'. Does it work? NO
Does the assembler command swbeg generate correct code? NO
Can you put a comment line after swbeg? NO
Can you change a register value with adb? NO
Does the C modifier work? NO
Is there a man page for the alternative assembler? NO
Can you write assembler on a TOWER? ????
