This UIC contains (at least) the source and documentation for an RSX-11 terminal emulator called (originally enough) TEM. TEM can be initiated from any TT:, HT:, or VT: device, and will drive any device on the TT:, HT:, or NL: driver. It does not provide anything really fancy (like help, or escape se- quence translation), but it does provide the following features and options: * Logging of remote input. * Transmission of ASCII files to the remote system. * Control character display (line monitor capability). * Local echo. * Local and remote line conditioning (via Get and Set Mul- tiple Characteristics). * Remote-line-specific startup and shutdown command files. Unlike the P/OS emulator, TEM has a simple, user-friendly com- mand driven interface. Non-wizards have been trained in a few minutes. TEM requires the full-duplex TT: driver, with "Set Multi- ple Characteristics" and "Attach for Unsolicited Input". It was written under RSX-11M+ V2.0, and so far has not been run under any other system. It should run under RSX-11M V4.0, though the smaller typeahead buffer may affect performance. It could probably be "downgraded" to previous releases by removing functions such as >SET /NOABAUD that hadn't been invented yet. TEM has been used successfully in the following applications: * Downloading channel setups to a terminal switch. * ASCII communication with RSX, VMS, and TOPS-20 systems. * Submitting pre-prepared SPRs to the Digital Software In- formation Network. * Debugging FMS. * Miscellaneous non-emulation duties, such as uppercasing files, translating carriage control, etc. TEM comes with the usual guarantee for public-domain software (ie - none). PAGE 2 Installation Guide and Release Notes To rebuild TEM, set your default UIC to the distribution UIC. Ensure that MAC and TKB are installed, and that LB: is assigned to a disk that has the desired copy of [1,1]SYSLIB.OLB on it. Then, >@TEM will build it for you. Following is a list of the files associated with TEM. Note that those marked "optional" are not needed to rebuild TEM.
