==============================================================================
The intent of this survey is to measure the level of interest in incorporating
certain enhancements to the Assembler H program product. This survey
is being circulated by the Assembler H Committee of the SHARE
Languages Project, which is part of the Applications Enabling Group
of the Applications Architecture and Data Systems Division of SHARE.
We would very much appreciate your taking a
few moments of your time to answer as many of the following as you can;
completed surveys should be forwarded to:
