Does anyone know where to ask for a permanent account ?
There are public guest accounts accessible, but all data is lost immediately on logoff. I am working on a backup/restore procedure through IND$FILE. Connect: Use a 3270 terminal emulator to connect to host tty.livingcomputers.org port 24 |

"Winter is coming."? -- Eddard Stark????????????????????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . VM/SP has been IPLed in the PST timezone for the winter months.?????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . Because the VM/SP environment has no physical unit record???????????????? ? . devices, the system profile has been changed so that the virtual????????? ? . printer and punch for each user now spool to back to their reader.??????? ? *?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? * The LCM+L (including the physical IBM 4361) is shutdown.

APL\360 is now installed thanks to Bob Bolsh. Use an APL-enabled????????? ? . terminal emulator and run APL360. ("x3270 -efont 3270 -apl"?????????????? ? . does nicely.)???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? 2020-05-01????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . Oregon Trail (the 1978 Creative Computing version) is installed.????????? ? . Type OREGON to play.????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? 2020-04-13????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . DON'T PANIC: "The DASD is being cleared" messsage at login is now???????? ? . normal. Users now have a 50 cylinder (~29 MBytes) temporary disk????????? ? . being allocated, cleared, formatted, and accessed as D at login.????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? 2020-04-02????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . The user ids GUEST and GUEST0-GUEST5 are now available for remote???????? ? . anonymous access. The password for all of the accounts is GUEST.????????? ? . Tell your friends.??????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? 2019-12-04????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . The games disk has moved from address 192 to 19C on user virtual????????? ? . machines, and now is automatically accessed at file mode G.?????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? 2019-12-04????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . The user directory (PASSWD file for you UNIX types) has been????????????? ? . tidied up and all regular users are converted to use a standard?????????? ? . profile. No changes should be visible. Report any problems via??????????? ? . NOTE to AHD?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? 2019-05-04????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . While the 4361 was in rehab, the local help files were audited;?????????? ? . numerous files were corrected, and entire menus were added for??????????? ? . local utilities, XEDIT macros, and games.???????????????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? 2018-07-03????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . NEW COMPILERS: The PL/I Optimizing (PLIOPT) and FORTRAN/VS??????????????? ? . (FORTVS2) compilers are now installed. (We're not sure why??????????????? ? . FORTRAN/VS works, but it does!)?????????????????????????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . The PLI (F) compiler is renamed to PLIF, and its library to PLIF????????? ? . as well. Likewise the FORTRANG and FORTRANH compilers have new??????????? ? . names, and their common library is now FORTGH. These changes are????????? ? . to avoid confusion with the newer FORTRAN/VS and PL/I Optimizing????????? ? . compilers.??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . In addition to our new compilers, we have taken a look at our???????????? ? . older offerings:????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . - Verified the operation of C (GCC), COBOL, FORTRAN (G, H, and??????????? ? .?? VS), PLI (F and Optimizing) and SNOBOL4 compilers.????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . - Verified the operation of the BASIC, FORTH, PLCT (PL/C for????????????? ? .?? CMS), SCRIPT (text formatter), and WATFIV interpreters.???????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . NOTE: Currently ALGOL 68, ASSIST (Assembler) Interpreter and????????????? ? . Stanford Pascal don't work. Work is in progress on ASSIST and???????????? ? . PASCAL.?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . We have added tools and demonstration programs to the Y-Disk:???????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . - "Hello world!" programs in BASIC, C, COBOL, FORTRAN, PASCAL???????????? ? .?? PLC, PLI, SCRIPT, SNOBOL4 and WATFIV. To view: FILELIST HELLO * Y?????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . - Simple EXEC procedures to build modules from compiler output??????????? ? .?? These include GENCOBOL, GENFORTG, GENFORTH, GENFORTV, GENGCC,?????????? ? .?? GENPLIF and GENPLIOP.? To view: FILELIST GEN* EXEC Y??????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? 2018-06-22????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . FLIST and BROWSE now exploit larger terminal sizes gracefully.??????????? ? . Thanks to Bob Polmanter (again!)????????????????????????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? 2018-06-20????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . SMART has now idle checking enabled. If you are idle for two????????????? ? . hours, it will warn you and then FORCE you off. Running any?????????????? ? . periodically waking program like VMCSMART will prevent this action.?????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? 2018-06-15????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . Various IPF utilties are loaded, including the very fast BROWSE and FLIST. . Sadly, they don't grok dynamic terminal sizes.??????????????????????????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? 2018-06-15????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . IND$FILE is installed for interactive file transfers. Our thanks to Bob?? ? . Polmanter (WABLY) for his efforts to make it compatible with VM/SP.?????? ? .?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? 2018-06-10????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? . The Real-Time Monitor (SMART) is now available. Type VMCSMART to????????? ? . run, and hit ENTER to stop refreshes and exit.??????????????????????????? ? *?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? * For the full (previous) log messages, enter: CP QUERY LOGMSG????????????? ? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ? |
