Well, not the files that are available from http://github.com/PDP-10/tenex
Pretty much everything I have is available there.
If you get a tenex.sav file built and put on a dectape with dumper and dluser I will gladly give it a try.
I don't know about the DECtape bit, but I'll give it a try.
What's your best shot so far? Which version, etc?
Tenex-133 or 134 would probably be my first try. I have tried to link it under Tops 10 but I get errors with linking. Once you get the .sav it will be fun to move it to dectape. I would probably use 151 exec. Give me a linked tenex for KA or KI with RP10 drives, TM10 tape and TD10 dectape and I should be able to build a running system without much trouble. I just can't seem to get the linked tenex.
I ran into a problem right away. I need an STENEX.UNV file. I tried to make it from STENEX.MAC, but it doesn't have a UNIVERSAL directive in it, so MACRO isn't happy about it.
How about SAILDART's STENEX.MAC[CSP,SYS]? Or there are utilities/stenex.unv files in SRI-NIC and Panda.
STENEX.MAC needs to match the version of the monitor being built.
Workaround is to make a file containing UNIVERSAL STENEX
, and another one with END
. Then assemble with STENEX=UNV,STENEX,END
I tried to assemble TENEX 1.33 and 1.34 sources with TOPS-20 V3 and MACRO 53. This version of MACRO does not work well, and complains ?MCRUVS
. If files are edited to SEARCH
after TITLE
the error goes away. But PROLOG.MAC
redefines TITLE
to do some trickery, so SEARCH PROLOG
must be before TITLE
.
What's the problem? I have a sudden urge to see it running. Please send me all the files.
