Hello, I have been working on an Imlac simulator. I wrote it in C with an idea to some day have it running on a microcontroller connected to an XY display. I based it on SIMH to get access to its many conveniences, but it wasn't primarily intended for public consumption. Mark found my code and sent me some helpful comments, so I guess the cat is out of the bag.
If you are interested in the Imlac computers, I warmly recommend Josh Dersch's simulator. It has the full package of almost all optional hardware and supports both the PDS-1 and PDS-4 models. It's written in C# for Windows but will also build and run with Mono. https://github.com/livingcomputermuseum/sImlac Here's the world's lagest stash of Imlac software, as far as I know: http://www.ubanproductions.com/imlac_sw.html There's also some software from MIT, including the infamous Maze game. From University of Washington there's the Freeway game that may be the inspiration for Frogger. I have yet to expore the Stanford AI Lab archives, but I know some things are hiding there. PS. Does anyone have a copy of Godel, Escher, Bach with a photo of Hofstadter sitting by an Imlac? _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list Simh@trailing-edge.com http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
