[fa.info-vax] Patch to allow broadcasts to PASSALL terminals.

MRL%PFCVAX@MIT-MC.ARPA (09/05/85)

If anyone wants to patch the VMS software in order to allow broadcasts for a
terminal set to PASSALL, the following locations must be changed. I've done it
here in order to send messages to users running EMACS.

In SYS.EXE:		In TTDRIVER.EXE:

8001199A		1B4F (VMS 4.2) or 1B29 (VMS 4.1)
80011C5B

OLD> "BITL #20001,B^44(R5)"
NEW> "BITL #20000,B^44(R5)"

The instruction tests whether the terminal's characterstic has been set to
either nobroadcast or passall in order to determine whether to skip sending a
broadcast to that terminal.  The patch simply removes the test for passall.
(Why it has to be done it 2 [actually 3] places is unknown to me.  It used
to only be done in the TTDRIVER under V3).

P.s. It's a good idea to save the old versions and to reinstall them before
upgrades.  Also, you have to reboot for the changes to be installed.
