        !            17: in the form of

        !            19: and writes on the standard output data suitable
        !            20: for
        !            21: .IR prom (10.1)

        !            23: .PP
        !            24: The options are:
        !            25: .TP
        !            26: .B -x
        !            27: Produce a table filled with '\-' (fuse blown) or 'X'
        !            28: (fuse present) for checking by human being.
        !            29: .TP
        !            30: .B -d

        !            32: .IR drom (10.1)
        !            33: driving a DATA I/O programmer with a LogicPak.
        !            34: .PP
        !            35: .I Pal
        !            36: has internal tables that describe the fuse layout
        !            37: and addressing inside the chips. The
        !            38: .I type
        !            39: flag on the command line is used to address the correct tables.
        !            40: .I type
        !            41: means the pal type, for example, "AM22V10".
        !            42: .PP
        !            43: The numeric symbol of a term that corresponds to the output
        !            44: enable of a pin is 100 + pin_number by convention.  Just to be strange,
        !            45: the convention for the 22V10 is: 200 + pin_number for polarity,
        !            46: 300 + pin_number for architecture fuses and pins 25 and 26 are
        !            47: asynchronous reset and synchronous preset respectively.
        !            48: .PP
        !            49: The pals with X in their name use an additional convention.

        !            52: can only handle and-or logic, and the X pals have two
        !            53: different sets of and-or logic driving the two inputs of an xor gate,
        !            54: those two terms are number 200 + output pin number and 300 + ditto.
