@dougmerritt @adaddinsane @colinstu the DEC peripherals were very simple to program. Our PDP11/34 loaded from RK05 drive which required entering over a dozen opcodes. I decompiled it once. It was basically "read block 0 into address 0, wait for completion, then jump there". At least it had a hex keypad, not just the row of switches of some others. Operators did learn to set those switches incredibly fast however
