Disklook

DISKLOOK is a small utility program designed for a PDP-8 computer with a 32-K DF32 disk. It provides a command-line interface via a Teletype to perform the following functions:

• Examination: Allows users to view the contents of any disk address.
• Alteration: Enables the modification of data at specific disk locations.
• Examine-Next: Simplifies sequential examination of disk memory.
• Searches: Supports positive and negative masked searches across defined disk address ranges.

The documentation covers command syntax (address expressions, search limits, and masks), error handling for illegal characters and disk errors, and instructions for loading and starting the program from address 200.
