        you are now running a rc8000 serviced by the operating system modules:

                           SOS,  TEM  and  PRIMO

SOS     is a swopping online system primarily running interactive jobs
        - a number of jobs share the same piece of primary store (on time
          sharing basis).
        - the jobs may only make direct access to fast equipment like backing
          storage, magnetic tape and floppy discs.
        - terminals are accessed indirectly via sos and eventually via tem
        - printers are accessed via primo

TEM     is a terminal access module offering terminal multiplexing (a number of
        terminals form a group) and terminal spooling via backing storage.
        - different sorts of terminal access protocols may be supported by tem
          (at present tty, format-8000 and "transparent mode")

PRIMO   is a file router module offering file transfer to line printers,
        tape readers, tape punches, card readers, and terminal readers
        - including facilities for transfer queueing, transfer inquiery and
          operator communication.
