Sorry - this is KS10 FPGA-related, too early in the morning ;)

That right there is immensely useful. KMC stuff already needs implemented for 
DECnet.

I've now forgotten who wrote it...but I've tried it out!

Ah right - I forgot TOPS-20 was Phase II only...ARPA stuff would prove useful 
there, then.

Hmmm!

Did the patches make it in to the "7.05" patches or was it forgotten then as 
well?

Magtape emulation and an LP20<--->lpd bridge...time to research if lwIP 
implements that!

I think that was a Johnny E. Project...a bridge exists in Linux user land.
