Article-I.D.: wjh12.165 Posted: Tue Feb 15 23:58:16 1983 Received: Sun Feb 20 12:37:26 1983 Why is the initialization code icode[] in machdep.c rather than in mch.s ? It seems that it would have been simpler to put it in mch.s, since this would have eliminated the need to translate it into octal from assembler.
