This is the BROOM program that I found on an earlier DECUS tape, modified so it does only rational things. The old one did weird things and had to be a privileged task, and it only worked on IAS. (Aside - I wonder if it is that IAS/RSX11D cause people to become twisted in their thinking. A lot of our IAS programmers do crazy, needless things, too. There is no reason in hell that a program like this should hit any disk than given on the MCR command line, and no reason why it should be privileged. All that aside, this program does serve a useful function). To build it, type @BROOM Ray Van Tassle Motorola 1301 E. Algonquin Rd. Room 4135 Schaumburg, Ill. (312)-576-6017
