	pip - definition by dict.die.net
		Pituite.] A contagious disease of fowls, characterized by hoarseness, discharge from the nostrils and eyes, and an accumulation of mucus in the mouth, forming a ``scale'' on the tongue.
		A program on CP/M, RSX-11, RSTS/E, TOPS-10, and OS/8 (derived from a utility on the PDP-6) that was used for file copying (and in OS/8 and RT-11 for just about every other file operation you might want to do).
		It is said that when the program was written, during the development of the PDP-6 in 1963, it was called ATLATL ("Anything, Lord, to Anything, Lord"; this played on the Nahuatl word "atlatl" for a spear-thrower, with connotations of utility and primitivity that were no doubt quite intentional).

	Peripheral Interchange Program - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Peripheral Interchange Program (PIP) was an utility to transfer data files on Digital Equipment Corporation's computers.
		As late as the mid 1970s, PIP was in common use, alongside its descendant.
		The two custom devices were implemented by calls to fixed locations at the start of the PIP program; the intention was that the user, or the OEM, could patch these locations to add their own input or output device.

		The file/data transfer utility, PIP (for Peripheral Interchange Program) is still in existence today, although in a much enhanced form.
		PIP evolved in a somewhat ad hoc fashion from a 1 Kword or 2 Kword size in 1965 to 10 Kwords with substantial generality.
		Its use as a systems programming language has been due to the close coupling it provides to the machine, its general syntactic and block structures, and its high-quality code generator.

	Documentation
		A chip that controls the transfer of data between the microprocessor and memory or between the micro-processor and a peripheral device such as a disk drive or the keyboard.
		For example, when a program sends a document to the printer, it is engaging in output activity; when the program sorts a list of terms, it is engaging in computational activity.
		The most common way that virus programs move from one computer to another is via "infected" diskettes, from which they copy themselves to the hard drive.

	CP/M Summary
		Application programs would load processor registers with a function code for the operation, and addresses for parameters or memory buffers, and call a fixed address in memory.
		Programs written for CP/M were typically portable between different machines, usually only requiring specification of the escape sequence for control of the screen and printer.
		One restriction on portability was that certain programs used the extended instruction set of the Z80 processor and would not operate on an 8080 or 8085 processor.

		A program can use the USR by means of standard subroutine calls such as those used to activate device handler subroutines.
		The format is ODT Once you have entered the command with the RETURN key, you may examine and modify any memory location of the program currently in memory or use the breakpoint feature to control program execution.

		Additionally, the program places the duty on either the doctor, the pharmacist, the patient, or all three, to adhere to the internal policy, for which there is no legal authority and which was created solely to serve the best interests of the insurer—not the employee.
		Developing a therapeutic interchange program that follows these guidelines with a primary focus on quality assurance and not just cost alone can be as valuable in defending formulary decisions as any statutes, regulations, or case law.
		Therapeutic interchange programs are pervasive in institutional practice across the country.

		PIP is the CP/M Peripheral Interchange Program that implements the basic media conversion operations necessary to load, print, punch, copy, and combine disk files.
		In the second form, the PIP command is equivalent to the first, except that the single command line given with the PIP command is automatically executed, and PIP terminates immediately with no further prompting of the console for input command lines.
		PIP performs a special function if the destination is a disk file with type HEX (an Intel hex-formatted machine code file), and the source is an external peripheral device, such as a paper tape reader.

		This language, designed primarily to keep students from shooting themselves in the foot and thus extremely restrictive from a general-purpose-programming point of view, was later promoted as a general-purpose tool and, in fact, became the ancestor of a large family of languages including Modula-2 and Ada (see also bondage-and-discipline language).
		Distinguished from a diff or mod by the fact that a patch is generated by more primitive means than the rest of the program; the classical examples are instructions modified by using the front panel switches, and changes made directly to the binary executable of a program originally written in an HLL.
		Interesting graphical output from a program that may not have any sensible relationship to the system the program is intended to model.

		About the only one we know of is the PIP (Peripheral Interchange Program) program supplied with CP/M. You can use PIP to copy files in and out the assigned physical devices (for example between computers) but no error checking protocol is used.
		All of the modem programs available for the ADAM are designed to talk directly to the physical devices and purposefully bypass the reader and punch logical devices.
		All of the critical programs needed to recover from a hard disk crash and configure the system are also on the distribution media - either diskette or tape.
