[Simh] Emulated Graphics card?

[Jason Stevens]

A while ago I started taking the PDP-11 that'd been modified for
graphics, and I managed to get it to start to ouput on SDL.. It's
reasonably portable, but I didn't think there was any interest...

I think the pallet needed some work, and there was some weird timer
thing where my SDL output ran too fast...?

Maybe bringing up the original PDP-1 video to the 3.8 SIMH level first
may be the ticket...

I would really love to have a simulated VAXstation. Is anyone working on something like this? As an idea for platform independent graphics output... could such an emulated graphics card output to VNC? That would allow using it on any platform that Simh can be compiled on (I want to run it on MaxOSX, others on Linux etc). Just connect with a VNC viewer. Virtual display size/bit depth could be specified in the settings file for Simh
