Subject: JRT Pascal multiplication fix

I was discussing a small documentation problem with the JRT folks in San
Francisco via telephone last week.  Upon completion of the main part of
our discussion, I mentioned a rather nastily worded rebuttal to the
benefits of JRT Pascal which was contained in last week's Infoworld.  It
seems that under certain circumstances JRT Pascal could not correctly
multiply a number times zero and come up with zero.  I was immediately
provided with the fix.

Use DDT on EXEC.COM.  Change an "ED" (echo delta) code in location 563C
(five six three charlie) to "EB" (echo bravo).  After exiting DDT, then
savethe modified version with SAVE 90 EXEC.COM.

I have little experience (so far) with JRT Pascal, but am learning slowly.
I have found the JRT people to be very helpful in the three conversations
that I have had over the last six weeks.

Hope this helps,
Bud
