If you assume that a program should save the ix, iy, af', etc registers
before calling the operating system, then Turbo Pascal falls into the
catagory of misusing registers.  It expects the index registers to be saved
by the operating system, which, unfortunately, my VT180 does not do.  This
causes the find and replace operations in the turbo editor to fail.
