Hello:
I downloaded "Medos-2" PDF by Svend Erik Knudsen
at the ETH site:
http://e-collection.library.ethz.ch/view/eth:21975?q=Medos

I only seem to be able to get to page 26, using GSView.
I don't have Adobe Reader.
Seems like there should be more pages, such as description of FileSystem.Read

Wanted to check exactly what is said about end-of-read and 0C character.

Sorry, I meant end-of-file not end-of-read.

There are 149 pages in the PDF file. From the FileSystem description:

"Procedure ReadChar (ReadWord) reads the next character (word) from file f and
assigns it to ch (w). If ReadChar has been called without success, OC is assigned to ch. f.eof implies ch = oc. The opposite, however, is not true: ch = OC does not imply f.eof."

Regards,
Chris

I just checked and there does seem to be a problem with the ETH download. You can download the complete document from BitSavers:

Just as reminder : the Medos source code ( version 4.2) can be downloaded from my FTP site.
Permission to redistribute has been sought from Dr. Knudesn.
