Jerome Fine replies: Since SIMH is concerned with so many different CPUs, no software distributions are directly available with SIMH. You have to download them separately - or ask if you have a particular preference. Since I am addicted to RT-11, I know where a lot of RT-11 software is located for download. Maybe the: http://www.classiccmp.org/PDP-11/RT-11/dists/ site should contain some pointers? In addition, at: http://simh.trailing-edge.com/ You can also download the same files at: http://simh.trailing-edge.com/kits/rt11swre.tar.Z http://simh.trailing-edge.com/kits/rtv53swre.tar.Z Sincerely yours, Jerome Fine -- If you attempted to send a reply and the original e-mail address has been discontinued due a high volume of junk e-mail, then the semi-permanent e-mail address can be obtained by replacing the four characters preceding the 'at' with the four digits of the current year.
