Re: [TUHS] networking on unix before uucp

The 3b1 emulator now kind of boot!.. There is some issues with stuff, but for the most part, it works http://virtuallyfun.superglobalmegacorp.com/?p=4149 -----Original Message----- From: arnold(a)skeeve.com [mailto:arnold@skeeve.com] Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2014 2:17 PM To: lyndon(a)orthanc.ca; lm(a)mcvoy.com Cc: rob(a)bolabs.com; tuhs(a)minnie.tuhs.org Subject: Re: [TUHS] networking on unix before uucp Larry McVoy <lm(a)mcvoy.com> wrote: I had one too. (Also a trailblazer and then a worldblazer.) The 3B1 ran SVR2; the BSD networking was available as an add-on with the ethernet card. I spent many happy hours working on that box, developing gawk and its documentation; it was slow enough that you could see algorithmic differences, e.g. standard diff vs. GNU diff. It had one of those great AT&T keyboards (as did the blit). The UI wasn't anything special to write home about though. For a while there was a separate 3b1.* set of newsgroups and an archive of stuff at Ohio State; there remains a comp.sys.3b1 group that still has some activity as new people try to revive some of these machines and others who had them help out. Someone was writing an emulator, but I don't think it ever got finished.
