Ah. It was so long ago, and I never learned ITS that well. However, I
don't think you can have several jobs in Tops-10, and I know you can't
in OS/8 or RT-11.
But that's an interesting capability. To have several jobs around, with
the memory intact, and you can switch between them, and play with their
memory.

Of course, the back side of that is that you
can't really run several
programs at once.
In ITS you can. You have one active job to which your command apply by
default. But you can create new jobs and switch beteen them.
