Hi, since simh supports the bang operator the described functionality can easily achieved by adding a call to the telnet client of your choice in the simh.ini file like:
; attach console set telnet 7777 ; Sample call for telnet client in windows ! start l:\local\bin\putty localhost 7777 ; and the same for linux ... ! gnome-terminal -x telnet localhost 7777 & ; ; Now start the emulator boot cpu .c > This would allow the use of any terminal emulator of preference - there > are a few commercial ones that are quite good, and for those that > already has one of those going, Putty might not be that popular! > > Besides, is there really a "DOS"-interpreter available in all windows > versions? If not, does that transform some windows-OS:es into just the > same case as "Unix" above? (Use first parameter's command to start a > window/shell with a command interpreter.
