I’ve been looking at the FPP emulator a bit more

more thorough look through the DECUS files to see what else is there. My recollection was
that we installed and fixed a privileged task into memory during boot up and then it was
like you had an FPP.
Oh, wow, that would be perfect in this case.
On the big 1.5 GB DECUS disk that had the original
APL sources, there is another version of the FPP emulator [6,2]FPPEM.MAC that is longer
than the RXS86B:[300,21]FPPEMULAT.MAC file that is more likely what I used on the 11/44
with out FPP.
I’ll keep looking for a FPP emulator that seems more like what I used in the past.
Thanks! I appreciate your help. I have to run over to the museum
now for a tour (not the APL guy, someone else) but will be back online
later.
