[Simh] I need help (and lots of it!)

[Ray Jewhurst]

Sorry, I forgot to send my reply. lol.  Well anyways,
I tried all caps for BIN and it worked.  I forgot that
linux is case-sensitive for I'm an old DOS guy.  Thank
you everyone for your help and if no one minds I'll
probably be asking for more in the future.

Thanks

Ray
