1.0  KNOWN BUGS AND DEFICIENCIES


     1.  RMSDEB, the RMS debugger is not supported, but is distributed
         as an aid for developing RMS applications.

     2.  RMS-20 $CREATEs of remote TOPS-20 indexed files will not work
         for  SIXBIT  or  EBCDIC  files.  This is a restriction of DAP
         V7.0.  Local $CREATEs of  SIXBIT/EBCDIC  indexed  files  work
         fine.

     3.  There is a problem with renames from the 10 of files  on  the
         20.  The -10's NFT says "Invalid access complete code".  This
         is because the NFT on the 10 uses a  ACCESS  COMPLETE  RENAME
         function  to  rename files;  this should be fixed in a future
         version of NFT-10.

     4.  Names for the IN4 and  IN8  key  datatypes  were  chosen  for
         compatibility  with  VAX  naming  conventions,  and would (if
         anything) refer to 9-bit  bytes.   When  declaring  these  or
         floating-point datatypes, the SIZ field of the XAB may be set
         to 0, as these keys have defined lengths.
