Control syntax help

[briandenley]

How do I actually run ANY program on the pidp-1?  let's say I just booted the PI:

what is the command to run snowflake for example?  OR do I start the pidp1 first and then give a command?  what command? octal, binary ?  What is the syntaX?

Or do I start it with a command?

I just can't figure it out!

The website instructions are not very clear>.

Thanks for any help!

Brian (pidp8, pidp11, pidp10)

Brian,

Its just simple:

Load a Papertape 

(Webapps, Connect your Display with the button, browse to the file, mount it, press Readin-Switch on your PiDP1)

(Desktop Apps, doubleclick the "load papertape app", browse to your file, press the Readin-Switch on your PiDP1)

In any case the Rimloader on the Papertape starts the programm after it loaded into the memory👍

Hope this helps.
