Hi Zane,

I downloaded Simh binaries prebuilt for Windows.
I also have Cygwin installed on Windows, so I can run Unix shell scripts etc.

Do you mean that most people are running Simh under Unix or Linux?

Thanks,

Bill

You should be able to find pointers to just about anything you'll need on
the following webpage.

Having said that, I'm not sure if anyone is actually using the SIMH KS10
emulation on a Windows PC.
