I have put up a set of pages on the Wang OIS System. The OIS is a minicomputer system
based on the Zilog Z80 processor. It was made from 1979 until around 1990. I also have an
OIS emulator in development. Currently, it can run most of the OS utilities, program
development, and Wang Word Processing. I have tested it with Red Hat Linux 7.2 and 7.3.
The pages are located at http://www.cass.net/~jdonoghu

That is excellent, Jim!
Is there any chance of talking you to convert your emulator to use
wxWindows ( http://www.wxwindows.org )? It is a cross-platform GUI and
system toolkit. It is quite well done, and would allow running your
emulator on a much larger range of platforms (PC, linux/unix, Mac, OS/2,
...) It is rather well done, has a very active developer community, and
uses the native look & feel of the targeted GUI (it will look like a GTK
app if that is what you link to, or a Motif app, or Win32, or XP, OS X, etc.)
I look forward to further developments on your web site.
