Let's see - console ODT on a KDJ11-B:

	@??
	@??

Not much there!  Let's try RT-11:

	RT-11ZM  V05.07
	.??
	?KMON-F-Invalid command

Let's try RSX-11M+, both MCR and DCL:

	RSX-11M-PLUS V4.5  BL83   512.KW  System:"TIMRSX"
	>SET TERM/MCR
	>??
	MCR -- Illegal function
	>SET TERM/DCL
	$ ??
	HEL -- Unknown HELP qualifier
	?

Oh, that's interesting.  I never knew that ?<xxx> was the same
as HELP <xxx> from DCL!

Nope, the answer's not there, either.  Astonishingly little
information content considering the 150Kbytes that are in that
page.
