Line 178: * LONG LONG WORD declares a 128-bit integer, which is a native type supported by the 2900 architecture * The bulk of the processing is delegated to another procedure, KERMIT_SUPPORT, which can be found in the same module. This is called indirectly via the operating system CTM_JS_CALL, similar to an exec() call on Unix systems; this ensures clean failure handling and tidying up of any resources in the event of a fatal error. The PDESC keyword constructs a "procedure descriptor": essentially it treats KERMIT_SUPPORT as a first-class function which can be passed as an argument to another function, making CTM_JS_CALL a higher-order function that calls its supplied argument with appropriate error handling. constructs a "procedure descriptor": essentially it treats KERMIT_SUPPORT as a first-class function which can be passed as an argument to another function, making CTM_JS_CALL a higher-order function that calls its supplied argument with appropriate error handling. ==References==
