| Here's the 1130 simulator as it stands now. | |
| Status: 13Sep2002 | |
| * Added support for 1403 printer. It's MUCH faster | |
| even in emulation. Not important for general use, | |
| but it will help the CGI version a lot. | |
| Status: 16Aug2002 | |
| * Disk Monitor System R2V12 is available including the | |
| Macro Assembler, Fortran Compiler and System Library. | |
| * There was a bug in the multiply instruction. This has | |
| been fixed, and now the single precision trig functions | |
| work correctly. | |
| * The card punch does not yet work correctly. | |
| * The card reader, punch and disk don't compute their device | |
| status word until an XIO requests it; this is probably bad | |
| as the "examine" command will show the wrong value. Doesn't | |
| affect functioning of emulated software, though. | |
| * Documentation is a work in progress, see ibm1130.doc | |
| in ibm1130software.zip. We hope to have it finished in | |
| October. This is a Word document. Will distribute as a | |
| PDF when it's finished. | |
| * Thanks to Oscar E Wyss (www.cosecans.ch) for | |
| the DMS V12 source code listings and one card | |
| programs, to Douglas W. Jones for the DMS V10, 11 and | |
| 12 microfiche (which will end up scanned on IBM1130.org). | |
| * Thanks to Robert Alan Byer for adding the 1130 | |
| to the simh makefiles & testing the builds on several | |
| platforms. | |
| * For updated information about the 1130 and for | |
| future 1130 OS and application software developments, | |
| check www.ibm1130.org periodically. Sign up for the | |
| mailing list to get updates as they occur! | |
| * Cross-assembler has been updated to handle card image input | |
| correctly. The DMS sources seems to mix up @ and ' | |
| as a leading symbol in labels, I have to find out why | |
| this is. | |
| BUILD NOTES: if you download this simulator directly from | |
| IBM1130.org, the makefile, source, and binaries are all in | |
| the main directory. If you use the version from Bob Supnik's | |
| SIMH distribution, the makefile is in the main simh | |
| directory, and the SCP files used are Bob's. For a | |
| Windows build, use the .mak file in the IBM1130 directory, | |
| as this incorporates the GUI. | |
| Make the utilities in the utils directory if you want | |
| to actually build and load DMS from scratch. Move the | |
| executables to a common directory in your search path | |

| Some sample things to run: | |
| (it's best to hit CHECK RESET or type "reset" between program runs!) | |
| * Run a Fortran Program | |
| ibm1130 | |
| do job roots | |
| do job csort | |
| * List the monitor system disk's contents | |
| ibm1130 | |
| do job list | |
| * Look into the files "job", "roots.job" and "csort.job" and "list.job" | |
| to see the actual input files | |
| * When the jobs have run (stop at 2A with 1000 in the | |
| accumulator), detach the printer (det prt) and look at | |
| the output file: for.lst or asm.lst. The supplied "job" | |
| script displays the print output automatically on Windows | |
| builds. | |
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
| Contents: | |
| There are several programs: | |
| ibm1130 the simulator | |
| asm1130 cross assembler | |
| bindump dumps contents of relocatable format object decks (xxx.bin) | |
| checkdisk validates DMS disk format | |
| diskview dumps contents of DMS disk directory | |
| mkboot creates IPL and Core Image Format Decks from .bin | |
| viewdeck displays contents of Hollerith-format binary decks | |
| Files in the software (sw) directory: | |
| actual 1130 software: | |
| dms.dsk disk image file containing Disk Monitor System | |
| zdcip.asm disk cartridge initialization program | |
| zcrdumpc.asm a cold-start-mode one card memory dump program | |
| dmsboot.asm source code for the DMS cold start loader | |
| contributed software: | |
| onecard/* one-card programs from Oscar Wyss | |
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
| Status of the simulator: | |
| * There is a reasonably fun console GUI available for Windows builds, | |
| as well as support for the 2250 graphical display. | |
| * The card reader emulator now supports deck files with literal cards and | |
| breakpoints. The command "attach cr @filename" tells the simulator to | |
| read data from the files named in the specified file. Input lines are of | |
| the following form: | |
| filename a -- input file to be read as ascii text | |
| filename b -- input file to be read as binary card images | |
| !xyz... -- literal text xyz..., treated as a card | |
| !break -- halts the simulator | |
| #comment -- remarks | |
| * The do command may have arguments after the filename. These may be | |
| interpolated in the script and in card reader deck files with %1, %2, etc | |
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
| sample usage | |
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
| ibm1130 | |
| starts SIMH-based simulator. | |
| Optional command line arguments: -q quiet mode, -g no GUI | |
| Enhancements: | |
| * Windows builds display a console window | |
| * CPU activity log | |
| the command "attach cpu file.log" will make the simulator | |
| write a detailed log of CPU and IO activity, good for | |
| debugging. Turn off with "detach cpu". | |
| * DO command [arg1 arg2...] | |
| reads file 'filename' for SIMH commands. Lets you write | |
| simh command files to be run from the prompt rather | |
| than just the command line. In the do command file, %1 will | |
| be replaced by the first command line argument, etc. This | |
| applies to the script run from the ibm1130 command line too. | |
| * DELETE filename | |
| deletes the named file | |
| * VIEW filename | |
| displays the named file with "notepad." (Windows only). | |
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
| asm1130 -l program.asm | |
| compiles source file, creates simulator load | |
| file (program.out) and listing file (program.lst) | |
| The cross assembler wants files either in strict column | |
| layout matching the IBM spec, or, if tabs are present in the | |
| source file, | |
| label<tab>opcode<tab>flags<tab>operand | |
| The output file is in the format used by the 1130 simulator's | |
| load command. | |
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | |
| Note: the DMS disk is built with the Windows batch file "mkdms.bat". | |
| Subnote: DMS cannot be built with the 1130's native assembler. | |
