E11 and modules for peripherals other then the usual PC ones

by gregg.drwho8＠gmail.com

Hello! According to the manuals for E11, it now can be configured to communicate with peripherals other then the usual things that the PC normally wears. I am planning a peripheral who has the address of &H300 on the PC, according to my manuals for the PC, that's the address of the prototype board for them. I would like to write a module for E11 so that anything who writes to an appropriate location matching one of the PDP11's own gizmos for data communications other then the typical printer (parallel, serial), serial port for terminal, would have its output sent to this peripheral. I am asking here, since I saw an interesting post from John Wilson earlier this week. My next step would be to repeat this question on the newsgroups for the PDP11. And of course I will be reading and if necessary re-reading the documentation for the E11. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8 at gmail.com "This signature was once found posting rude messages in English in the Moscow subway."

Any chance this could be in comma separated format? Put strings in quotes if necessary. The F$ELEMENT() DCL lexical doesn't understand about items that contain embedded separators, quoted or not. Why do you want it to be a comma? Bob

Let's try this again... Any chance this could be in comma separated format?

The format is pretty straight forward - you can just type out CODA::INFO.TXT and see for yourself. Bob

NFT>type CODA::INFO.TXT So what is NFT actually doing with this as opposed to the other form?? Bob Being trouble.. Now we have to get it working from a VMSnet box trying to get a file, there is comments in the source history, but no matching code lines... " 0023 Make DIRPSW large enough to accommadate 39 character passwords so stack won't get destroyed. Also get default account for login so that a null account string will be allowed. "

And in non VMSnet speak? It works for Sampsa - it must not like you, Peter :-) Access information for node CODA::/ACCOUNT:decnet I don't think "decnet" is the correct account to use for default access - it should be a null account name and a null password. In transparent DECnet speak, it would be CODA""::INFO.TXT. I don't know exactly how that translates to NFT. Bob Ok.... NFT>type CODA::INFO.TXT BOB AND DEBEE'S COMPUTER GARAGE ------------------------------- This is the node CODA, currently an AlphaServer DS20E running OVMS 8.3, in Bob and Debee's Computer Garage and Retirement Home for old DEC computers. It normally runs 24x7 and serves as our server for mail, DNS, NTP, Samba, and a few other services. It's also a hub of sorts for other machines which connect to HECnet via Multinet DECnet over TCP/IP connections. Thanks..
