I finally got a monitor for my VS3100 m38 and was playing with DecWindows
all night. Really cool.
One thing I'm a bit surprised by is the speed of the video being much
faster than I'd imagined it would be. Now to get some software to run
on it; I've found some stuff already, but can someone point me at some
share/freeware software to run under DecWindows (besides the DECUS
archives)? In particular, I remember using an ephemeris program in school
that I could swear was freely distributed.
And a couple more questions for the experts:
Does the DECUS hobbyist license cover all versions of VMS/DECWindows?
I'm running 5.2 on this machine; would upgrading to 6.1 noticeably degrade
performance? Would additional features balance out any slowdowns? Besides
new features, my entire manual set is for 6.1...
