Looking inside the saveset, is this kit for the Alpha? Or did you just
create the backup on an Alpha?

It took a couple of days (had to dust off and power up an old machine

but the VMS Modula2 compiler is on LEGATO.

I've uploaded everything on RHESUS::[MEDIALIB] to http://retrotron.sampsa.com/vmsmedialib/
The bandwidth should be at least an order of magnitude faster than RHESUS::, but the usual caveats with downloading BCK savesets over HTTP apply..

Yeah that does need a photo..

Of course photographs of vaxen pron are always welcome ;)

Most excellent, many thanks! Will be a nice Christmas present for me (try explaining that one to 'normal' folk)
I will pull it tomorrow when I get back home and fire up the hecnet.eu empire which is currently cold and dark.
Remember to update your nodelist DB. ;)
Kind regards, Mark.
Have any particularly interesting plans for what you'll implement in MODULA-2?

Well, retrochallenge is coming up next month so the world's my oyster!
Good luck! Hope you come up with something really interesting!
I should pick back up on my attempts to build irssi on 4.3BSD. Maybe i'll enter it for retrochallenge.
Realistically I hope to put myself (mentallly) back into the warm computer room of Hatfield Poly (now University of Hertfordshire) filled with VT220s around 1991 when I originally messed with this stuff ;)
;)
