BTW, I noticed a couple of places in DTF.MAC where error checking code was
commented out, e.g.:

 ;EHLT4:        XX              ;HALT WITH BLK#IN LIGHTS, CONTINUE
 ;      MOV     #257.,R0        ;TO FIND DATA WORD POSITION
 ;      ADD     TOG1,R0         ;DETERMINE WHICH WORD IS WRONG
 ;EHLT5:        XX              ;HALT WITH #OF WORD IN LIGHTS. 0=REV. CHKSUM
 ;      MOV     @TCDT,R0        ;CONTINUE TO FETCH BAD WORD
 ;EHLT6:        XX              ;HALT WITH BAD DATA IN LIGHTS. CONTINUE

Maybe it would be useful to un-comment them?

No, this is the old code to display the error words in the front-panel display. Instead, my code (that follows the commented one) converts the words to ASCII octal representation and displays the appropriate error message on the console.
