Re: [Simh] OSs with accessible documentation
There was another system that came out at the same time as Solo and the UCSD system: Tunis from Ric Holt then at Toronto. It's written in concurrent Euclid which was one of many Pascal influenced languages of the time. It originally ran on the 11 but I believe was later moved to the 68k and I think even the 6809.He has a book they describes it. It's a system call equivalent of UNIX V7. I believe that there was also a C compiler for it but I do not think its binary compatible. They did it a few years before AST released Minux which was his V7 clone he built to teach students. Does anyone know it there are sources et al for it?

His first name is "Per" as in Per Brinch Hansen. He chewed me out once because I had always shortened it to Brinch Hansen - as an American I had seen in many places that way. I discovered he much prefers his name to be written out. At the time he had written a really good intro to Java book a few years ago called "Java for Everyone" which I was teaching with at the time (note: he does turn java into Pascal but that's another story - its still a great book for beginning programmers). Anyway, I was communicating with him about it at the time and got dope slapped. Clem ___ Simh mailing list Simh@trailing-edge.com http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
Re: [Simh] OSs with accessible documentation
Thanks! UCSD seems to be much more user friendly than SOLO. I look forward to messing around with it.
