Ray,

I am at work, or I'd try to throw an image together for you. I'll
look at this tonight. In the meantime, I have some notes on how to
do it that should hold up even though I wrote then a couple of
years ago. There are two - one for RT11 and one for the
programming environment. If you follow them both, you should wind
up with a working RT11 v5.3 with Fortran IV that is capable of
building the ADVENT source code into a working program. After that
you're on your own - I'm not a RT11 guy or a Fortran guy :)

Fortran and programming environment note:

Now that my interest is tweaked, I may clean 'em up and post them
on my blog in a more readable form.

Thanks,

Will

Hi Will,

I am not a Fortran person either but I do have a little bit of RT11 
experience, along with a fair bit of SIMH experience, and I just 
wanted to say that both of these documents are exceptionally well 
done.  Their explicit transcription and verbosity make them suitable 
for the absolute beginner, and that same plain English makes them easy 
to scan through for someone who knows a bit more about the subject.  I 
applaud your work.

Thanks! I was trying to capture what I understood about it at the time 
and do it in a way that would also be replicable down the road. I should 
have put it up on the blog, but I generally won't put it out there if 
it's not 100% and this one has a few rough edges that I haven't taken 
the time to clean up.


Will

Ray,

I went through the notes and they worked ok... a few minor glitches, but 
they still worked :). For anyone who wants it, here is a simh pdp11 
rt11v5.3 that has basic, pascal, and fortran iv prepared according to my 
notes:

that they could send. I followed multiple tutorials on installing it and I
always am unsuccessful. Someone sent me one about a year ago but I lost it
in a hard drive crash. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
