3. New Features in 3.0 vs prior releases

3.1 SCP and Libraries

- Added ASSIGN/DEASSIGN (logical name) commands.
- Changed RESTORE to unconditionally detach files.
- Added E11 and TPC format support to magtape library.
- Fixed bug in SHOW CONNECTIONS.
- Added USE_ADDR64 support.

3.2 All magtapes

- Magtapes support SIMH format, E11 format, and TPC format (read only).

- SHOW <tape_unit> FORMAT displays the specified tape unit's format.
- Tape format can also be set as part of the ATTACH command, using
  the -F switch.

3.3 VAX

- VAX can be compiled without USE_INT64.
