[Simh] TU-58 tape

[Mark Pizzolato]

The all of the VAX (and PDP11) simulators in the current simh codebase at HTTPS://github.com/simh/simh have TU58 device support.  The console devices on the VAX750 and VAX730 simulators can boot from bootable media (device TD as I recall).  All simulators have simulated TU58s connected via simulated DL serial ports with the device known as TDC.  Up to 32 TU58 drives are supported.

    I can't seem to be able to find anywhere, and I looked at some of my own previous posts as well as others on this list; about tu-58 tapes.

    Now there are some VMS versions 3 and 4 and such that have a .TAP extension. They are copies of actual cartridges. For vax or possibly pdp11. How do you set the vax for those tapes? I have looked at simh docs and tried at tu (or tk) tk0 and it seems to work but set doesn't work. Here's a link to that page.

Does simh emulate this tape? I'm sure most are familiar with this page.
