TERMINAL SIMULATOR PROGRAMS

TRMS30, TRMS32, TRMS34 ARE PROGRAMS WHICH ENABLE
THE PDP8/E TO ACT AS A TERMINAL TO OTHER COMPUTERS.
THE SUFFIXES 30, 32, 34 REFER TO THE KL8 DEVICE CODES
TO WHICH THE SIMULATED TERMINAL IS CONNECTED. TRMS30
USES DEVICE CODE 30 FOR INPUT FROM THE REMOTE COMPUTER,
AND DEVICE CODE 31 FOR OUTUT TO THE REMOTE COMPUTER.
LIKEWISE, TRMS32 USES DEVICE CODES 32 AND 33, TRMS34
USES DEVICE CODES 34 AND 35.
	ESSENTIALLY, THE PROGRAM ACCEPTS INPUT FROM
THE PDP8 CONSOLE AND SENDS IT TO THE REMOTE COMPUTER
(WITH 3 EXCEPTIONS).  THE PROGRAM ACCEPTS INPUT FROM
THE REMOTE COMPUTER AND SENDS IT TO THE PDP8 CONSOLE OR
CENTRONICS LINE PRINTER.
	THE THREE EXCEPTIONS MENTIONED ABOVE ARE PROGRAM
COMMANDS: CTRL K, CTRL P, AND CTRL X.  THESE CHARACTERS,
WHEN RECEIVED FROM THE CONSOLE, ARE NOT TRANSMITTED TO THE
REMOTE COMPUTER.  INSTEAD, THE FOLLOWING ACTION IS TAKEN:
	CTRL K : KILL INPUT BUFFER (7777 OCTAL)
	CTRL P : SEND INPUT FROM REMOTE COMPUTER TO PRINTER
	CTRL X : SEND INPUT FROM REMOTE COMPUTER TO CONSOLE

	PLEASE NOTE THAT THE DATA RATES OF THE TWO COMPUTER
DATA LINES MUST MATCH.  TRMS30 CONNECTS TO A 120 CPS PORT,
WHILE TRMS32 CONNECTS TO A 30 CPS PORT.
