TS10 Emulator v0.8 Alpha

Developement
------------

This PDP-6/PDP-10 emulator still is under developement and is not ready yet
for production.  It almost is finished.  There is some problems in this
emulator routines.

Also other PDP6, KA10, KI10, and KL10 processors are being implemented
later.

TOPS-10/TOPS-20 Operating System
--------------------------------

TOPS-10 v7.03 is running fine under this current version of KS10 Emulator.

TOPS-10 v7.04 is running fine but unable contact galaxy daemons. OPR
and REACT programs froze up due to IPC problems until Ctrl-C pressed.

TOPS-20 v4.1 is running ok but some problems with overdue data errors.
All problems on CTY device had been resolved by changed in a PI evaluation
routine.

To get them from Tim Shoppa's archives.  You need least 200 MB disk space to
download everything from his web site.  His web address is:

ITS Operating System
--------------------

ITS instructions had not implemented yet at this time.

To get ITS package with source codes:

Instructions to run the emulator
--------------------------------

To install TOPS-10 series, check your MIG manual.

This T10 emulator now have socket interface so that you can telnet into
the TS10 emulator by usint telnet command.

$ telnet <hostname> <port>

With TS10 default, its port is 5000.  You can change it in a fe.c file.

To run the TS10 emulator system first: (If no TS10> prompt displayed,
just press CR key to print it.)

$ ./ts10 -f ks10.cfg
  ------------------
TS10>

To enter the KS10 system on other xterm or terminal, type:

$ telnet localhost 5000
  ---------------------

Then run system at TS10> prompt:

TS10> boot rpa0
      ---------

Then do something on xterm that you are telneting into.  That is all.

Now you can mount/dismount pack/tape files on TS10> prompt without
affecting running PDP-10 system.  That finally is real timeshare.

Thank you!
