MRC's "Lights" #1849

Open larsbrinkhoff opened 4 years ago

larsbrinkhoff commented 4 years ago

From Greenblatt's "Stanford cruft" tape: LIGHTS 14.

        title LIGHTS
        subttl Program to hack the lights - MRC 8/18/76

Takes inputs from the switches, which specify the sleep time between updates. Zero means exit.

Asks Image= when started. 0 means "special hit hack".

Needs the MACROS 115 file to assemble. MIDAS 324 works.

The delay between updates is a busy SOJGE loop. I first tried 1 and then 1000000 (octal). Both attempts hung ITS, even to the extent Control-\ doesn't break out to the SIMH prompt.
