There are a couple of B5500 emulators out there.
One I have worked with
is pretty much fully functional, but I believe there are more than one.
B5500 System Tapes are also available online. Contact me if you need
links - might take me a few minutes to hunt them down.
I'm an emulator addict, so I'd definitely be interested in checking available emulators. Bing found:
https://GitHub.com/pkimpel/retro-b5500/
and
https://GitHub.com/stacklover/b5500emulator
Did you try contacting that particular author? His github info
indicates it should run under Cygwin on Windows or Linux.
The first lead me to the software available at:
http://www.PHKimpel.us/B5500/webSite/SoftwareRequest.html
and
https://GitHub.com/retro-software/B5500-software
The first emulator is web based, and the second fails to build. I'm not a
fan of web interfaces. Are there any other B5500 emulators and/or
software
that Bing missed?
https://github.com/smcharg/B5500 is the one that I have used - helped a
tiny bit with identifying some issues using extended Algol code I wrote
in 1969.
The repository is private, however, and I don't see an email address for
him on Github. I'm not comfortable sharing his contact info without his
permission.
Software, recovered by my buddy Paul Pierce (or is at least available
from his website)
