[comp.sys.apollo] manuals for aegis programmers

GBOPOLY1@NUSVM.BITNET (fclim) (10/13/88)

     the other day, i mapped /lib/pmlib by issuing bind /lib/pmlib -map
and found that there are routines like acl_$get_entry  (or something
like this).
     the manuals we have for aegis programmers cover only two routines
under acl -- namely, aclm_$up and aclm_$down.  there's nothing about
acl_$get_entry and many more other routines i found in the map.

      my question is, did my vendor shortchange us on the manuals?
how many manuals are we entitled to?  what are they?

      many thanks in advance for any pointer.

No, what you are seeing are the unrelease internal system calls
which Apollo uses internally. They don't want us end-users
fooling around with the internal calls, so they don't put them
in the documentation.
