Actually its a fairly straightforwards exercise to modify things in "ROM" 
(ala MACintosh or either SCCS or MMS).  Technical terms are things like
call vectors in RAM and forward deltas.  CDC will probably be distributing their
entire documentation sets for their big machines on R/O disk in the future.

Of course having the manuals on-line is something anyone reading this should be 
familiar with, but having real manuals on line rather that microcryptic man
pages is something to blow ones mind.  Its even novice friendly.  Now one
doesn;t have to say "RTFM", the editor will even do that for you if you are 
using it in the edit-compile-reedit mode.
