The later version is from 1970, and the comment has changed to: THE FORMAT OF 'SUPER LINE MARK' IN ASCII ARCHIV FILES IS DEFINED AS FOLLOWS: FF NL NL NL DEL DEL DEL DEL NAME1 SP SP NAME2 SP SP MM/DD/YY SP SP HHMM.M SP SP ZZZZZZ DEL DEL DEL DEL NL NL NL NL TOTALLING 14 WORDS. ZZZZZZ IS THE WORD COUNT. So by now we've switched to #ASCII. From the code, NL is what is now called LF. The code also implies that ASCII is internally represented with 9 bits (i.e. 3 octal digits), so 4 characters per 36 bit word. 6/n #CTSS #retrocomputing #IBM7094
