I slowed my SIMH down to 1M (‘set throttle 1M’) to give it that ‘big, important machine’ feeling – silly, I know, but I feel that a system is more powerful if it’s slow – it must be doing something seriously complex if it’s taking that long..
It might be worth me pointing this out (I’m tired and not too bright anyway), but when the object files are linked in LIBR, you press Enter – or ‘RETURN’ as us old fogies still call it – and then press Control-C to exit. When I did this the first time, I just pressed Control-C and was a bit puzzled when the linker failed.
