[.;@ have any meaning?]
Yeah, it's in the . directory (; is a directory seperator, like /)
and the file is called "@ ITS". ITS filenames has 2 parts, 6 characters long.
[Had an account on a 10?]
Yeah. Toad.xkl.com is XKL's PDP-10 clone. I also have an account on
xkleten.paulallen.com, which is a similar machine. Both run TOPS-20.
I don't have an account into a real PDP-10, but I've telnnetted to a TOPS-20
KL-10 and asked for the SYSTAT once... (Was bootstrap.org).
[Are the ITS sources available?]
Not anymore. The AI and MC dumps had all the turist homedirs in it, and
that's a whole lot of private stuff. I just got really lucky.
It used to be available, but the turists set up a loud wailing and they
were taken offline.
