For those of us using a separate monitor for the type 30, it can't be started independently as long as pdp1_periphES is running because the port is in use. But, without pdp1_periphES running, can't load tapes via the tape picker. It lets you pick, but readin doesn't see it.

Or, am I missing something? If not, it would be very useful to be able to tell periphES to not open its display emulation.
