Instruction sets: Add the manual for the PDP-5. Use {{cite book}} for both the PDP-5 and PDP-8 handbooks, and give the correct date for the PDP-8 handbook ("5/66").
Operands: indirect with autoincrement
Line 78:
:The instruction specifies a register to use as an index. In some architecture the index is scaled by the operand length.
;Indirect
:The instruction specifies the ___location of a pointer word that describes the operand, possibly involving multiple levels of indexing and indirection.
;Truncated
;Base-displacement
:The instruction specifies a displacement from an address in a register
;autoincrement/aurodecrement
:A register used for indexing, or a pointer word used by indirect addressing, is incremented or decremented by 1, an operand size or an explicit delta
