Comments in the data file claim this was a conversion by Charles Murphy to 
the PDP-8 from Bob Supnick's PDP-11 conversion of Wood's original.

These source and binary files were obtained from:

ADVENT.LD is a "loader" file for FORTRAN under OS/8 on a PDP.
ADVENT.RK05 is a binary image file of a PDP RK drive with ADVENT.

It may be run as follows:

  1. Obtain the SIMH PDP8 simulator. You're on your own here.

  2. Create a text file called ADVENT.INI, with the following:

     set cpu 32K
     set cpu idle
     attach rk0 advent.rk05
     boot rk0
     exit

  3. Launch the PDP8 emulator:

     ./pdp8 ADVENT.INI

     You will land at a '.' command prompt. 
     
  4. Run:

     R FRTS
     ADVENT.LD

     then press ESC to start ADVENT.

To exit the simulator, type Ctrl-E.
