INTRODUCTION
____________
The following short manual describes the changes that have happened
to SAIL since the publishing of the Manual in July 1973. It
accurately reflects the state of SAIL, version 7, which was put up on
December 4, 1973. The reader should be warned that many of these new
features were designed for veteran SAIL hackers.
The reader may also want to refer to the following documents, which
are usually kept updated.
MACLIE.WRU[DOC,AIL] A summary of commonly made errors when using
macros and what to do about them.
TUTOR.DOC[DOC,AIL] In introduction to LEAP.
LEAP.WRU[DOC,AIL] A detailed description of the runtime environment
of LEAP for the hardy few who want to interface
to LEAP in assembly language.
SAIL.DOC[AIM,DOC] The July '73 manual (AIM-204) in LPT form.
Warning: this version is the Stanford character
set. It is also almost 300 pages long. You can
get a 120 page version, set in two columns of
nice type from the National Technical Information
Service, Springfield, Virginia 22151.
TYPOS[S,AIL] This file contains the know mistakes in the
Manual. Soon it will also contain the known
mistakes in this document.
