This document describes ADDINDX (DECUS No. 12-66), a program designed for the LAP6-DIAL-MS environment on PDP-12 computers. ADDINDX serves as a handler for the MILDRED subroutine library, enabling users to add, search for, or delete index entries on LINCtapes. The program is particularly useful for managing index entries in the upper tape area to prevent system overwrites and for maintaining indices for programs or data created under other systems. The document provides detailed instructions on loading the program, using its interface to manage file descriptors, handling system responses, and includes flowcharts to illustrate the logic flow.
