Following up on my v6
udpate a couple of weeks ago, I've updated my v7 note to use
OpenSIMH and bring it up to date. In addition, I've switched the
multi-session notes over to DZ-11 from DC-11 cuz it supports 9600
over telnet.
Here's the link:

Changes since revision 2.1 (2/3/2022)
Revision 3.1 (10/29/2022) -
minor revision:
Changed over to DZ-11 vs DC-11 for serial connections which
allows for 9600 baud connections.
Revision 3.0 (10/28/2022) - major revision:
Started using OpenSIMH
Restored the learn notes which went missing between 2.0 and
2.1
Updated host notes for Macos Monterey
Cleaned up a number of lingering issues
This note covers building a working v7 instance from tape files
that will run in the OpenSImH emulator. First, the reader is led
through the restoration of a pristine v7 instance from tape to
disk. Next, the reader is led through adding a regular user and
making the system multi-user capable. Then, the reader is shown
how to make the system multi-session cable to allow multiple
simultaneous sessions. Finally, the system is put to use with
hello world, DMR style, and the learn system is enabled.
The note explains each step of the process in detail.
