found a bunch of my old PDP-11 code online! it's at DECUSlib. my uudecode for INDirect is there, as is my Peritek monitor driver, and some of my variations on FIG Forth, as well as my utilities peek, poke, and tail, from BASIC and UNIX respectively.

that uudecoder is how I got Kermit onto the standalone Unibus system in the Fort Lauderdale ACDCS. I used to love working nights and weekends; there were hundreds of feet, if not miles, of unused data cables throughout the facility that could be rerouted such as to set up communications between computers all over the GMF. and were. it was fun being able to diagnose and/or reboot systems without having to leave where I was.
