Hi Patrick,
Really testing my (fading) memory! This was on a System3 Model 15D.
I'm sure there wasn't anything like the object authorities on the
current IBM i. To give you an idea, here's a quote from
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_System/3
The system could only run two programs simultaneously, except for the
model 15 or systems running the Communications Control program, CCP. The
CCP was a system control programming feature that allowed to support an
online network ofterminals

What I'd call /minimal/ operating system. These days, I sort of
correlate MRT to a web server, which calls a program to handle a
particular web page.

I think the classic (late 1970s when I was learning CCP), was airline reservations. Ticket agents would all use the same program, which would show the entry screen, and one program would handle all the input.
Interesting! Do I understand correctly? There was no distinction between individual users (user profiles with individual authorities)?
:wq! PoC
