whatareblocks In Konilo, blocks are 1,024 values (typically characters) that are used for long-term storage. The ilo computer provides a block storage device, and Retro has words to read blocks into memory and write them back to the storage device. I like to think of blocks as being similar to index cards. You can write, draw, etc onto a card, and then file them away until needed.
