See the TOPS-IO Operator's Guide for a description of all operator-privileged commands. Commands to TOPS-IO are presented in alphabetical order in Chapter 2 for easy reference. Reference material for assembly language programming can be found in the TOPS-IO Monitor Calls Manual Volumes 1 and 2, the DECsystem-10 MACRO Assembler Reference Manual, and the DECIO/20 Processor Reference Manual. Getting Started with DECsystem-10 introduces first-time users to the TOPS-IO operating system command language. You should read this manual at least once before reading the TOPS-IO Operating System Commands Manual. You should also be familiar with Introduction to DECsystem-10.
