What sources did you use? I had to fix some things to
build and run
under RSX. My fixed version can be found on MIM.
I started with the sources from MIM::DU:[APL], then (last night)
moved to the distribution that Mark Matlock recovered about two years
ago. Most of my testing has been based on the latter.
And why are you trying without FPP?
Because neither of the 11/70s at LSSM has an FPP board set.
Also, I have created an RPM package
for APL, which you can just install if you have that thing running. But
that requires FPP as well.
Yes, that's how I started. I have your (wonderful) RPM system
running on all of the networked RSX machines both at LSSM and at home.
When I saw APL in the list of available packages, I thought "Oh, easy!"
...but the executable crashes due to its FPP requirement.
