Hi,

With TSU disk added, does this contain Cobol, Fortran, Algol, APSLF, BLISS compilers?

This disk image runs fine in klh10. It's a smooth running Tops 7.04 image with SOS and BASIC.
I noticed it's the same twonky file system that was included with the original klh10 2.0A release back in 2001, except
for the addition of the TSU disk which is specified in the pdp10.ini as:
devdef dsk0 rh0.0 rp type=rp06 sn=1024 format=dbd9 path=disks/T10-RP06.0-dbd9
devdef dsk1 rh0.1 rp type=rp06 sn=1026 format=dbd9 path=disks/T10-RP06.1-dbd9
devdef dsk2 rh0.2 rp type=rp06 sn=1028 format=dbd9 path=disks/tsu

So with the addition of thatl tsu disk, I had the hope that it might contain the Cobol, Fortran, Algol, APSLF, BLISS compilers.

I see them listed in dir SYS:, but when trying to run them they don't run.

Could there be any commands needed to add what is in the tsu disk to the search list or some other way to make the compilers work
that I am not seeing?

Thanks,
Bill

Here is another TOPS-10 installation you can try. It mentions Cobol and Fortran.

NOTE, it runs on @rcornwell's PDP-10 emulator: https://github.com/rcornwell/sims/

TSU is a set of patches, that need to be applied. In terms of Tops 10 7.04 I would avoid it unless you want to upgrade it. The printer does not work. This is no problem on klh10 since it does not support printer.
