I am running it in the windows console.
I can see that setting TTU_KSR on the mode flags passed to sim_tt_impcvt will
do the job. The pdp-8 console hard code this bit on
else uptr->buf = sim_tt_inpcvt (c, TT_GET_MODE (uptr->flags) | TTUF_KSR);
the is also a KSR mode switch
MTAB tti_mod[] = {
{ TT_MODE, TT_MODE_KSR, "KSR", "KSR", &tty_set_mode },
But this only forces UC (sim_console.h)
#define TT_MODE_KSR (TT_MODE_UC)
So basically pdp8 is always doing KSR. I assume that I don’t want that for
pdp11.
I tried naively adding the same mode flag but of course that did nothing since
is not a mode it’s a modifier of a mode (an 'ored' in flag) so I am not sure
what to do. I mean I can hack that flag into a temp build but it seems like
this is a useful thing to have
Not helped by not knowing what KSR really means.

On an xterm session, there may not be a way to do it. If you were running simh
from a dumb terminal on a serial port, you could set your terminal to do 7E1
(even parity), and possibly a matching "stty parenb -parodd" , but the arg
'parenb' appears not to be valid from a window session.

Does "set tti 7p" work for this?
