364	Error in BCD conversion by GCOS Daemon	dean@…	Eric Swenson	"There appears to be a problem in the GBCD conversion done by the GCOS daemon. The following job deck causes an error when submitted via the daemon but works fine with the 'gcos' command line program:

$      SNUMB   HANOI
$      IDENT   CLAYTON,FOO
$      OPTION  ALGOL
$      ALGOL   LSTOU
$      DATA    S*
'BEGIN'
'INTEGER' N;
    'PROCEDURE' HANOI(N,P1,P2,P3);
    'INTEGER' N,P1,P2,P3;
    'BEGIN'
      'IF' N=0 'THEN' 'GOTO' EXIT;
      HANOI(N-1,P1,P3,P2);
      OUTPUT3(6,""/,""MOVE RING\,ZZD"" FROM POLE\,ZD,"" TO POLE\,
      ZD\,N,P1,P3);
      HANOI(N-1,P2,P1,P3);
  EXIT:
    'END' OF PROCEDURE HANOI;
    N:=4;
    HANOI(N,1,2,3);
'END' OF ENTIRE PROGRAM
$      EXECUTE
$      ENDJOB


The error produced on the operator console is:

0944  gcos gcos_read_: Error converting card 13 to bcd: SNUMB = hanoi

It seems like it does not like the backslash maybe?"	defect	closed	major	MR12.9	Administration		fixed
