Hi David, I have on & off played with your simulator since details of it were posted on the HP3000-L mailing list in 2016. I now have more time to spend seriously trying it out. have some questions for you.
1) I have several Store-To-Disc files that the simulator won't access. It just hangs after displaying that the volume has been mounted. The only way kill it is by doing a SHUTDOWN. I have included a copy of the console log after my signature. 2) I am running the simulator on Linux Mint 18.3 and using the GNOME Terminal. Even though the .sim script I am using contains a "set console DEL=177" the delete key does not work. 3) Is it possible to get an MPE V/E FOS tape image. I have 10 of the Interex Contributed Software Library (CSL/3000) available but quite a few of the contributions won't work with V/R due to system table changes.
