  • Put OS9 assembler call patterns in code font Wrap 'OS9 F$...' and 'OS9 I$...' in backticks throughout (97 replacements). Where the call name is a markdown link, backtick 'OS9' alone. Leaves 4-space indented code and bare OS9 OS references unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

  • Put module names in code font throughout Wrap IOMAN, RBF, SCF, SCFMAN, BOOT, INIT, CLOCK, SYSGO, OS9P1, OS9P2 in backticks in all prose contexts (187 replacements). Skips fenced code blocks and already-backticked spans. INIT inside INITIALIZE/ INITIALIZATION left unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

  • Fix misspellings and table cell-split conversion artifacts Spelling fixes: 'transfered' -> 'transferred', 'Fortan' -> 'Fortran', 'non-existant' -> 'non-existent' (x2), 'Descripto' -> 'Descriptor'. Table fixes: rejoin 'U'+'ser' -> 'User', 'P'+'rivileged' -> 'Privileged', and two 'A '+'ddress' -> 'Address' split artifacts from Pandoc conversion.
