I had a chance to play with PLUS while I was a student at U. Wisconsin.
 It was for an independent study course, using a new EXEC the sysprogs
had written to provide access to the batch job queue.

Managed to crash the 1108 (or maybe it was the 1110) twice in a row
owing to a bug in their EXEC.  ;)

Later they adapted (or completely rewrote) it, and had the job queue
displayed on TV screens down in the basement of the Computer Science
building in Madison.
