Workspaces

A number of the workspace areas used by the major processors are listed. These include:

Input String (IS) workspace – used to process input strings, particularly from the EDITOR and English processors.
Output String (OS) workspace – used to process output strings, particularly to the EDITOR and English processors.
History String (HS) workspace – used to pass messages to the Wrap-up Processor at the conclusion of a TCL statement.
Temporary String (TS) workspace – used by system user exits for input and output conversion.
BASIC workspace – used by DataBasic.

The IS, OS and HS workspace form the major part of the scratch space used by a process.

Note: HS, IS and OS workspaces are each initially 6K (6144 Bytes). They are extended as necessary up to a system limit. By default the system limit is 16M.
