Does anyone know of how to utilize control Y traps in PASCAL3000? Althogh
various run time traps are mentioned, it seems that control Y is not
mentioned in the manual, hence apparently not supported. I was thinking
of putting a SPL subroutine in a RL and trying calling that from PASCAL.
I suspect the catch is that you have to assemble the SXIT instruction
yourself when using control Y in SPL programs and that PASCAL hs no
way to do this.

While I am at it.. does anyone know if PASCAL on the SPECTRUM systems
(commercial) will support control Y traps?
