Good.  I knew it would get into MPEX eventually.  Back when I wrote ACAP,
it (ACAP) was the only program that knew the NMPRG layout.


For the curious:

   :debug
   symopen symos.osc05.telesup   (or whatever group your SYMOS is in)

   map lzw   (where LZW is the program file)

   var lzwaddr 1234.0    (where 1234.0 is the virtual address displayed
                          by the map command)

   fv lzwaddr "lst_header.AUX_LOC"

4c      (seems to always be $4c)

   fv lzwaddr + 4c "HPE_PROG_AUX_HDR"

CRUNCHED RECORD
   HEADER_ID      :
      MANDATORY : FALSE
      COPY      : FALSE
      APPEND    : FALSE
      IGNORE    : FALSE
      RESERVED  : 0
      AUX_TYPE  : 7
      LENGTH    : 1c
   ENTRY_NAME     : 0
   UNSAT_NAME     : 0
   SEARCH_LIST    : 0
   CAPABILITIES   : 183
   MAX_STACK_SIZE : 989680
   MAX_HEAP_SIZE  : f5000
   RESERVED       : 0
   POSIX          : FALSE
   MAX_PRIORITY   : 0
   PRIORITY       : 0
END


   unmap 1    (the file that you mapped, above)
   c

In the above output, the max_stack_size is 10000000 ($989680).

The capability mask is $183...I'll leave that as an exercise for the reader.
(Hint: SYMLIST CAP_@)
