Actually I recall seeing _HALT or _HLT more than once in the old days (and not from your posts, Gerrit :-). I even remember that I was later looking "where the heck is that pin about halting the CPU?!" before I realised it's named differently. Don't ask me where it was though. I can guess in either some of the German magazines or some Compute! ones as those were the only sources of this kind of information for me in the eighties. OTOH to me it looks more like _HALT being the input (CPU - don't move!) and RDY being output (I, the CPU am RDY working). So the "wrong" one seems more "right" ;-) -- SD!
