I must fess-up to the problem with the RT Zemu, as I wrote it...
Bein an RT developer, I usually used the latest and greatest version of
RT which we had available. At the time I worked on the RT modules for
Zemu, V5.5 of RT was available, and SYSTEM.MLB was available with it.
I used it since it was the standard to use it for programs... I used it
in everything I worked on, just as the rest of the development team did.
The problem is that it means the code cannot be assembled with a version
of RT which doesn't have it. That should NOT mean, however, that if one
were to get a copy of it that it couldn't be used with an earlier
version. I certainly wouldn't try SYSTEM.MLB on a V4 system, but maybe
V5 or later... V5.3 *should* work (we were using it internally even
before it was released), but there are no guarantees.
SYSTEM.MLB isn't, however, some magical file -- it simple was what we
used as a centralized library of macros which defined structures within
RT-11. If one were to go through the RT Zemu code, they could be
derived with a little knowledge of RT.
I've had little time to even look into it for quite some time owing to
work pressures...
