Re: Diag8 documentation

I dont think you want to do that via a diagnose. Have you looked at the HAO?

Example:

Another example, shown below, illustrates how the dot matrix display of a
3480 tape unit might be used to implement an automatic tape library:

   hao tgt HHCTA010I ([0-9A-F]{4}): Now Displays: (?:".{8}" /
)?"M([A-Z0-9]{1,6})\s*S"
   hao cmd devinit $1 /u/tapes/$2.awstape
