the point here.
Well, it so happens that I do have an 11/03, although I wasn't
thinking of running this little dog-and-pony show on the actual
hardware. I was content with emulating a small SIMH configuration in
order to see just how small I could make it.
So, you are not "small" at all. Why that requirement then? It seems very
pointless. Essentially, all you need is to get it to run under RT-11
with TECO, and it will run on any PDP-11. The only difference will be
speed. And since you're running under simh, you can run as fast as you
want (well, almost anyway), or as slow. What point is there to request
the information about which PDP-11 actually was the slowest?
I also have a VT180, and an 11/83, but I haven't ever powered up
either of those.
Won't make a difference either, as your TECO program will be identical.
And so can your RT-11 be.
What is left is actually writing the code, something that seems to get
much less attention...
That part I can handle on my own and I've already started looking at
it. It's really not that difficult, but requires a few advanced TECO
"tricks" (ER with substituting the contents of a q-register in the
text of the filename argument).
You don't do it like that. You create the command in the main buffer,
with all the glory you want. You then store it in a q-register, and then
you execute it.
GET requests are fairly trivial. PUT is possible. DELETE I'm not so
sure about, unless EG is supported in the target environment. HEAD is
also a problem because there's no way of getting file attributes
(modified or created time) directly from TECO. Again, you might be
able to hack something together if EG is supported.
Getting file information pretty much is a no-do in TECO, yes. Deleting a
file... Hmm, I don't think there is a command for that either.
EG is not really a good substitute, since it will mean you leave the
TECO environment.
POST to a TECO macro URL is possible.
Definitely not a problem.
Cookies should not be a problem either.
