Edinburgh IMP-77 for TOPS-10/20

imp-77's Issues

updates available

The missing 'tell' package is on my site at https://gtoal.com/history.dcs.ed.ac.uk/archive/os/dec10/

The 3b35[bcd].mem files are the Dec10-specific manuals - you might find those a better choice for the top-level page than the ones you have, which are for the EMAS version of Imp. (Obviously the .html versions were not contemporary - I processed the .mem files to make them easier to read on our web site - likewise any file that has two extensions - i.e. an extra .txt added - that was because our web site would download rather than display the file when you clicked on the original extension)
Some of the files in the archive you copied are ".com" files which contain more files - I've now unpacked those on the new site, eg https://gtoal.com/history.dcs.ed.ac.uk/archive/os/dec10/imp/impdoc/

If you're interested in Imp there are more documents from other systems at https://gtoal.com/imp77/reference-manual/

(just FYI I don't currently have access to the history.dcs.ed.ac.uk site so I've been putting new material on my own site temporarily)

Delighted to see that you found this, and I'ld love to hear if anyone gets it running on a Dec10 or an emulator. I had a try myself with simh but I think I may have installed the wrong O/S because the command-line was nothing like I remember and I couldn't work out how to use the compiler! The ERCC machine was a KL model and I believe it was running Tops-10 though I haven't fully confirmed that.
