[Simh] simh & pdp-8 os-8 forums / help

[Buddy Bell]

I have spent about 2 hours trying to figure out why my new simh/PDP8
does not have an LPT device by trying to locate the right forum to ask
for help.  If this is the wrong place please forgive.  Googling does not
show any DEC PDP centric forums (So I created my own Yahoo group
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/VintageDEC/info).  If you know of
any existing forums please pass it on.

When I key:

LIST TEXT.PA

I get the message:

LPT DOES NOT EXIST

When I start the emulator I have been keying:

attach LPT text.txt

and no error is reported.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Regards
