There is a MONSYM, on TOPS-10, along with about 2-3 dozen other .UNVs:
.dir unv:

ACTPRM  UNV    15  <055>    1-Sep-88    DSKB:   [5,17]
ACTSYM  UNV    86  <055>    1-Sep-88
...
MACSYM  UNV    69  <055>    1-Sep-88
MACTEN  UNV    30  <055>    1-Sep-88
MONSYM  UNV   273  <055>    1-Sep-88
...
UUOSYM  UNV   104  <055>    1-Sep-88

By the date, that's not something I added to the system.

Of course not. I have both systems. TOPS-10 wants UUOSYM and MACSYM (for
STDAC.). UUOSYM alone won't get STDAC. .

I initially included alt.lang.asm because I thought a fizz buzz
challenge might get some other people to post. There's but two people
lately, and the majority of posting is me. Likely most people there
don't have a PDP-10 system or possibly even care much about it. Indeed,
most solutions I've seen for fizz buzz in assembly are x86. The other
guy that posts on alt.lang.asm is using x86 MS-DOS era code.

Until the next question(s), thank you.
