GLOSSARY
Library search symbol (entry symbol)
Line
A list of symbols that are matched against unresolved symbols in
order to load the appropriate modules. This list is used only in
library search mode. A library search symbol is defined by an
ENTRY statement in MACRO-10.
Line feed
A string of characters terminated with a vertical tab, form feed,
or line feed. The terminator belongs to the line that it
terminates.
1. The operation that prepares for the next character to be
printed or displayed at the same (current) position on the
next line on a terminal or line printer.
2. The ASCII character with the octal code 012.
Line printer
Line
Load
.An electro-mechanical computer peripheral which accepts a line of
characters from the computer at a high speed and then prints the
entire line in one operation.
To combine independently--translated modules into one module in
which all relocation of addresses has been performed relative to
·that module and all external references to symbols have been
resolved based on the definition of internal symbols.
To produce a core image and/or a saved file from one or more
relocatable binary files (REL files) by transforming relocatable
addresses to absolute addresses. This operation is not to be
confused with the GET operation, which initializes a core image
from a saved file (refer to GET) .
Local peripherals
The I/O devices and other data processing equipment and memory,
excluding the central processor and memory, located at the
central site.
Local symbol
Lock
A symbol known only to the module in which it is defined.
Because it lS not accessible to other modules, the same symbol
name with different values can appear in more than one module.
These modules can be loaded and executed together without
conflict. Local symbols are primarily used when debugging
modules; symbol conflicts between different modules arE~ resolved
by mechanisms in the debugging program.
An association between a,job and a resource.
