    I used to do that on a PDP 11/40 and an IBM 370/158. Programmers these days with their point and click stuff....bah humbug!

      PDP 11/23...mmmmmm, VAX Macro.....

      Code:
              .TITLE  ROUT1
              .ENTRY  START,^M<>            ; Beginning of routine
              CLRL    R0                    ; Clear register
      LABT:   SUBL3   #10,4(AP),R2          ; Subtract 10
      LAB2:   BRB     CONT                  ; Branch to another routine
      If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.

        IEFBR14 START
        USING IEFBR14,15 Establish addressability
        BR GO Skip over our name
        DC AL1(L'ID) Length of name
        ID DC C'IEFBR14' Name itself
        DS 0H Force alignment
        GO SR 15,15 Zero out register 15
        BR 14 Return addr in R14 -- branch at it
        END IEFBR14

        A null program

          I remember those and the VAX. I also remember loading the operating system and ALGOL compiler in on paper tape before being able to start work. Forget what it was. Yes. What. Yes.

            The smell of stale urine can never be erased.
