Highlights:

  • Twenty-three newly available manuals, making a total of forty-five. Many thanks to Al Kossow of bitsavers. I also added a handy index.html to the bookmarked PDF collection.

  • SPL/32 has been enabled, and the PR: device is spooled to PR1:. We now have a working PRINT (or PUNCH) command, complete with banner pages.

  • MTM terminals renamed TT1 to TT8.

  • MTM SYSGEN'd with two extra processes for batch streams. Your overnight jobs can now be SUBMIT'ed to the queue.

  • MTM SYSGEN'd with higher NCSBFS to allow two concurrent EOU sessions, or three if they don't compile at the same time.

  • MTM SYSGEN'd with an extra global variable G16 for MEDIT.

  • The MTM shutdown script now runs .MTM STATUS WAIT before it goes down, so you can check your CURRENT, PEAK and WAITS counts.

  • MEDIT -- Perkin-Elmer's full-screen editor. I have written some config files for xterm (XTERM.ME and EASY.ME) to get started.

Bugs:

  • MEDIT is a bit messed-up, and could use some help from someone who can diagnose termcap-type problems.

  • The Ratfor-based DIFF command does not work when SPL/32 is running. I may try replacing it with the one from busybox.
