This account contains tutorial units on RSX that we
have used for several years in our graduate course in electronic
instrumentation for scientists.
RSX-1 - A tutorial unit on RSX-11M. Introduces the student to
various concepts of using a modern well endowed
operating system. Included are such topics as
on-line-HELP, system facilities, private device
maintainence, program development, file manipulations,
and editing. The idea is to expose a student with no
assumed computer background, well actually, FORTRAN
might be helpful, to the facilities needed for program
development and file maintainence. The unit assumes
MCR, DIR (Paul Sorenson's), and CCL and is compatible
with Version 3.2 and 4.0. The unit uses a group of
write protected files in a write protected directory.
The student must also have access to a private device
and a write enabled public device. This version is
written to use DP0: for the write protected files,
DP1: as the write enabled public device, and DX: for
the private device. Other configurations can be easily
utilized. The file RSX1BLD.CMD can be used to set up
the write protected files.
