To the best of my knowledge no one has tried (especially since E11
runs under DOS already). I'd love to see the Supnick emulators
under Windows (3.1 or 95) with a graphical front panel like the Doug
Jones PDP8 emulator under X11.

Imagine real toggle switches and 11/45 emulation running V7 or the RT11
RSTS/E or RSX light pattern (all different) showing up in real-time...

Any Visual C/Borland C types want to try it?
