The seventh release of the HP 3000 Series III simulator is now available from the Computer History Simulation Project (SIMH) site:
https://github.com/simh/simh This release significantly improves ATC terminal I/O. File uploads via Telnet using the Reflection terminal emulator are now over 100 times faster than before (for example, the upload time for a one-megabyte file has decreased from 69 minutes to 30 seconds). Block mode reads show similar speed improvements. Copy-and-paste into the terminal window, Reflection file downloads, and output to the terminal window in REMOTEACK mode show speed improvements of five to fifteen times. Output in LOCALACK mode has been improved by around 50%. In addition, an updated "HP 3000 Simulator User's Guide" that adds information on the ATC setup required for successful Reflection transfers is provided in Microsoft Word format with the source download and also as a PDF file at: http://alum.mit.edu/www/jdbryan/hp3000_doc.pdf The preconfigured MPE-V/R disc image available here: http://simh.trailing-edge.com/kits/mpe-vr-software-kit.zip ...has been updated to increase the number of terminal buffers per port. This helps to avoid the "MPE Table TBUF has overflowed!!!" system console message that otherwise occurs during Reflection uploads. -- Dave _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
