That's the problem - the KS never had DTEs, not even close, and simh only emulates a
KS10. The only way out is to emulate a KL, and that's a big job. KLH10 already does
that pretty well, and I don't think simh will ever acquire KL emulation.
The other issue with the KS was that it was limited to two sections (512KW) of memory,
and that's pretty much a show stopper for all later versions of TOPS20.
It runs TOPS10 fairly well, though.
