ESC1111@DDAESA10.BITNET (07/15/86)
Two completely unrelated (and probably ignorant) queries: 1) Does anyone have an estimate for the elapsed time typically needed for a process at software priority 31 to actually get into execution after a wait of some sort is completed. I *think* this translates into asking what is the longest period of processing at IPL>1 which would be encountered during normal operations. I guess this covers all the drivers and their forks and any IPL$SYNCH stuff. If someone out there can answer (or maybe tell me the right question to ask) I would be most grateful. 2) How do people make FORTRAN (Yes - I need to use FORTRAN) include files from the output of the 'message' utility. Thanks to Joe's VERB utility I can see that there are two undocumented qualifiers /SDL and /MDL which seem to produce bliss(?) and macro include files but nothing for fortran. Do I really have to resort to TPU? ...................................................................... snail : N.
