Correct. Dave Cutler is the "father" of RSX-11/M+, VMS, and Windows
NT. (Yes, you may insert "WNT is VMS++" jokes here.)

Interestingly I heard an anecdote that Cutler contributed so much to
RSX-11/M+ that someone thought "Dave Cutler" was a made up name used
by groups of programmers because "surely no one can write that much."
I think I'm misremembering it.


Speaking of SIMH instructions, I've been meaning to, for a while,
document the setup of and installation of layered products in, RSTS/E
10.1, but I keep getting sidetracked.


Cheers,
Christian
