NAME

hp3000 — Simulator for HP 3000 series computers

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

hp3000 is a simulator for the classic SIO machines. This group consists of the 3000 CX, the Series I, Series II, and the HP 3000 Series III that is simulated here. A large variety of CPU options, device interface cards, and peripherals are provided.

The following options are available:

-e

Processing of startup-file (including nested command invocations) is aborted if a command error is encountered.

-q

Certain informational messages are suppressed.

-v

The commands in startup-file are echoed before they are executed.

If startup-file is specified, it is used as an initial source of simulator commands. If startup-file is not specified, default locations are searched. See the SIMH User's Supplement for more details.

If a startup file is specified, either on the command line or otherwise, it should contain a series of non-interactive simulator commands, one per line. These commands can be used to set up standard parameters.

After initializing its internal structures and processing the startup file (if any), the simulator types out its name and version and then prompts for input with:

EXIT STATUS

hp3000 exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
