The code (written in C) emulates either the KS-10 *hardware* or
the KL-10 hardware. So you can run TOPS-10 or TOPS-20 or ITS
or anything for that matter (legality allowing). So JSYSs or
UUOs is up to you.

Mark Crispin, I know, has managed to get TOPS-20 running on a
laptop pc. All be it slowly :-)

tops-20-request@simtel20.army.mil is the list that (not suprisingly)
tends to talk about this. The list home is moving to panda.com soon.

comp.os.tops20 anyone? :-)
