====== TYMCOM-X Startup ====== Part of the [[tymcom-x|TYMCOM-X]] project. See also the [[tymcom-x-status|Status]] page. ===== Initial set up ===== See [[tymcom-x-simh|SIMH Setup]] page for - setting up the TOPS-10 environment - getting the TYMCOM-X sources to it. It is assumed that the TOPS-10 emulator is left up and running. See the Setup page if you need to restart it. ===== Building a new monitor from sources ===== === Do this on the emulated TOPS-10 system === .login public/path:[,,m33] .teco filename.mac .rename filename.org=filename.bak ; If this is the first edit to filename.mac .r filcom *=filename.org,filename.mac *^C .do mon14.mic When mon14.mic is complete (28 seconds), switch to window logged in as [1,2] OPR>^C .copy sys=[42,42,m33]mon14.exe .r opr OPR> set ksys +0:01 ;;SYSTEM: - Timesharing is over!
