This document provides the documentation and program listing for a PDP-8 subroutine (Digital-8-20-U-Sym) that outputs character strings stored in memory. The subroutine handles all ASR-33 characters and treats specific ASCII characters as exceptions to handle them correctly within the 6-bit stripped code format used internally by the PDP-8. It includes information on storage requirements, calling sequence using JMS, and a detailed discussion of the methods used for special character processing.
