for a density of 800 bpi), the timing of the sort and merge passes, and the
output tape unit.
In the FAP calling sequence to S[OCRerr]CTR, all arguments must be symbolic
(i.e., they must be the address of a location containing the actual argument).
In addition, all actual arguments are F[OCRerr]RTRAN integers unless otherwise
specified.
The calling sequence is:
TSX [OCRerr]SMERSH,[OCRerr] entry to sort a BCD tape; use SPECTR for a binary
tape;
TSX ITEM,O number of words per item
+ sign for core dump on
- sign for suppress dump;
TSX IREC,O number of words per input record;
TSX [OCRerr] number of words per output record;
TSX P,Q - 0 for no padding of short output records
- 1 for padding of short output records
TSX PAD,O 6 Hollerith padding characters
(if P = 0, then PAD = 0);
TSX [OCRerr]BDER,O order of merge;
TSX SMRTAP,O logical number of input tape
+ sign to ignore input tape after use
- sign to re[OCRerr].nd input tape after use;
TSX FILES,O number of input files
+ sign for all files on same reel
- sign for each file on separate reel;
TSX Sll,O number of first tape in first set of scratch
tapes;
TSX .[OCRerr]l2,O number of second tape in first set of scratch
tapes;
etc. for remaining tapes in first set;
TSX S21,O number of first tape in second set of scratch
tapes;
TSX S22,O number of second tape in second set of scratch
tapes;
etc. for remaining tapes in second set;
TSX KEYS,O number of keys on which to sort;
TSX PK[OCRerr][OCRerr]l,O position relative to beginning of item of leftmost
character of first key;
TSX LKEYl,O number of characters in first key;
TSX FKEY2,O same as PKEYl for second key;
TSX LKEY2,O same as LICEYl for second key;
etc. for remaining keys;
TSX [OCRerr]TAP,O output tape number
(will equal 0 if an error occurs).
