You should also check the condition code after each intrinsic
call to make sure that you don't continue e.g. after the file
has not beeen opened for some reason.

As far as I recall, you declare a name for CONDITION-CODE in
the SPECIAL-NAMES section and then use IF statements to check
if (directly) after each intrinsic call.

I believe, the older version of the web pages (plain HTML and GIF,
no fancy JavaScript and frames gimmicks and thus frequently much
faster to browse) are still available at...

 http://docs.hp.com/mpeix/docs5/

You just need to keep in mind that some of the manuals on that URL
might not be the latest version. But thanks to the forward compatibility
of MPE/iX the older manual versions can still be useful at times ;-)
