The current simh codebase has a remote console capability.
There are two modes of remote console:
1) An "extra console" mode where the remote console connection can enter some
commands to the running simulator. These commands are:
EXAMINE
DEPOSIT
EVALUATE
ATTACH
DETACH
ASSIGN
DEASSIGN
CONTINUE
STEP
PWD
SAVE
DIR
LS
ECHO
SET
SHOW
HELP
2) A master console mode where the primary simh session input is delegated to a
telnet connection. In master mode, the following commands are supported:
EXAMINE
DEPOSIT
EVALUATE
ATTACH
DETACH
ASSIGN
DEASSIGN
CONTINUE
STEP
PWD
SAVE
CD
DIR
LS
ECHO
SET
SHOW
HELP
EXIT
QUIT
RUN
GO
BOOT
BREAK
NOBREAK
An API exists which leverages the remote console capabilities to facilitate
applications which want to initiate and monitor and control simulators. See
sim_frontpanel.h for the API definition and frontpanel/FrontPanelTest.c for a
sample/test application which uses the API.
