Description

User Longints can be used to transfer information between the host and resident controller programs. The 100 element array [1..100] of 32 bit integers can be read and written from both sides. There is no established convention for how the values are used. Generally they provide parameters to resident controller routines and return results back. The size of the array is a constant inside the interpreter package that can be adjusted as required.
