DEC PDP-8/E wanted - still looking

[Tom Hunter]

Hi Dave,
Could you please explain how exactly the VT emulation "kills" the Fortran
run time system in OS/8?
What is the fault? How do you trigger it? Have you got a Fortran code
snippet which reproduces the problem?
Was there some previous discussion about it answering my questions above?
I have a reasonable level of experience with VHDL and Xilinx ISE so maybe I
can fix it if I can reproduce it.
Thanks and best regards
Tom Hunter
