For example, the IBM 1620 emulator, written in
Java, is
very nice graphically; the 1620 had a great front panel.
About 35 years ago, I was using a 1620. The two main programs we were
using were a PDQ FORTRAN compiler, and ...
a 1401 EMULATOR!
I wonder if the 1401 emulator that ran on the 1620 would run on the 1620
emulator?
Unfortunately, last year, one of our administrators hauled off all of our
file cabinets of punched cards, and I don't know where else to find a
copy.
