Hi Bill,

Your previous efforts were tangled up with the question of the platform you were using and the configuration of that platform.  Simh will run on essentially all modern OS platforms, but the example you've pointed at was a Linux Desktop system (I.e. one with a GUI display environment configured running the X-Window system).  Start from that and follow the directions in your recipe.
