PDP11GUI comes as a self installing “MSI" paket, made with InstallShield.
The installation contains those files
- “pdp11gui.exe” is the core program
- “macro11.exe” and “pdp11disas.dll” are helper programs for MACRO11 assembly/disassembly. They are needed for PDP11GUI to work. They are Copyright by others.
- “pdp11.exe” is the special version of SimH (more).
PDP11GUI can run without it, it is in the package for convenience. Copyright by Bob Supnik. - “pdp11.ini” is a prototype machine description file. Use it as template for your own one.
- The “*.mac” are several short MACRO-11 source f iles. These are the helpers from “Hints on testing a dead PDP-11”.
- “EY-C3012-RB-001 PDP-1144 Processor Maintenance Supplementary Listings (microcode) Apr-81.txt” contains the micro code listings for 11/44.
Because of Vista/Win7/Win10 compatibility, I was forced to conform to Microsoft standards:
- All executables are installed into “%ProgramFiles%\Joerg Hoppe\PDP11GUI”.
“%ProgramFiles%” may expand to “c:\programs”. - All text files are treated as user documents and are installed in
“%USERPROFILE%\PDP11GUI”:
“%USERPROFILE%” may expand to “c:\documents and settings\” - All text files are overwritten on the next update installation, so keep local copies, if you change them!
