PDP-10 target

Get up and running in ITS.

It's a word-adressed machine. But there are also special "byte pointers". Consider what to do about C@ and C! etc.

CC @aap, who has made a stand-alone PDP-10 Forth.

Do you mean in an emulator, or do you have access to a real PDP-10?

@catb0t I have ITS running using the KLH10 emulator.

Update. These are now possible hosts:

  • KLH10: emulated KS10 processor.
  • SIMH: emulated KS10 processor.
  • SIMH: emulated KA10 processor.
  • Real KA10 running TOPS-10 at the Living Computers Museum.
  • Real KS10 running ITS at the same place.
  • Real KL10s running TOPS-10, TOPS-20, and WAITS.
  • Real KL10 that does not run now, but did run ITS back in the days.
