True. But you still have the problem of how to get the files on to the
RSTS/E system... That's the kicker with RSX... You have TCP/IP. And I
know very well how to get a very simple binary image transferred to/from
your Unix system.

RSTS can also read RT11 file structure (with a tool called FIT, if I remember right. Or
FLINT, one or the other). Then you can get the resulting RSTS file off with the FLX
utility. Is there a Windows utility that will read and
write RT11 files from TU58, RX01/2 or RL01/2 images? A Linux utility would be OK too.
I know about PUTR, but it doesn?t appear that it can run under any recent (e.g. 64
bit) version of Windows..
And EXCHANGE on VMS works fine, but getting the image files on VMS in the first place
is a hassle.
By the way... May I suggest RSX? :-)
Getting the image in to RSX should be easy (ftp things in block mode, or ping me and I
can do that for you).
Then you can play with the image using the virtual device drivers, and FLX.
