Introduction
------------

The simulator mostly retains the user interface written by Robert M Supnik.
See the original documentation in simh_doc.txt included with this version for 
details on specific commands.

Notes on this Windows CE Port of the simulator
----------------------------------------------------------

I've done some limited testing and have booted RSTS/E and RT-11.
Most of the testing was done on PocketPC's. 
I've done no testing on 2.11 other then on the x86 simulator.

A few of the commands in the simulator do not work. Most notably
the save and restore commands for saving images of a running system
and the commands for running a batch file.

The toolbar has the standard buttons along with a button labeled
"A" and another labeled with a red dot. The A button changes the
size of the screen font. You can cycle though the fonts by pressing
the button multiple times. The red dot will stop the simulation when
it is running and return to the simulator command mode (this can
also be done by pressing ^E).

When you open or create a disk using the attach command, the
simulator first looks in "/" for the file. Next it will look
in "/My Documents". At this point, if it does not find the 
file, it will create it.

Originally I did a cleaner port using the existing stdio commands
but the stdio library didn't exist on the P/PC 2.11 version of
CE. I changed the IO calls to standard WIN32 file IO calls and
ifdef'd them so I could support all CE platforms.

Some of the hooks from the standard C terminal IO to a Windows
based app are kind of ugly. Don't look unless you have a strong
stomach J

Bugs
----

The Palm-size/PC version has a problem where if you turn on the
keyboard, it will cover part of simulation output. This is not a problem
on the newer Pocket/PC's because this version of the library resizes
the output window.

I'd be interested in hearing about any other OS's that people
have been able to boot. Also, drop me a note if you make any
changes to code if you are willing to allow me to incorporate 
them for others.
