PREFACE




This reference publication describes the Multiprogramming Support (MPS)
utility macro-instructions available with the Disk and Tape Operating
Systems.

It is intended as a guide for the programmer using the utility macro-
instructions to create simple file-to-file routines for operation in a
multiprogramming environment under the Disk or Tape Control Programs, as
described in the System Control and System Service publications listed
on the cover page of this publication.

This publication deals with utility macro-instructions, source lan-
guage program illustrations for generating a utility program via these
macro-instructions, and the process for the assembly and initiation of
generated utility programs.
