D-Day June 21, 2020

Get in touch if you'd like to contribute. There's a long to-do list. Everything from non-programming to HTML to C(++).

How to build & launch

First build the binaries

cd vme/src/ make all # add -j8 to compile on 8 threads in parallel

Make sure .def files are pre-processed

cd ../etc/ make all

Then compile the zones

cd ../zone/ ../bin/vmc -m -I../include/ *.zon

Now you're ready to launch, open four tabs in shell

cd ../bin/ ./vme # tab1 tail -f vme.log # tab2 ./mplex -w -p 4280 # tab3 tail -f mplex.log #tab4

You can also launch a telnet mplex using e.g. 'mplex -p 4242' And then telnet localhost 4242. But telnet is best for debugging

To open the client

cd ../www/ firefox index.html

Set the host to your fqdn or localhost and set the port to match mplex (4280 if you used that) And you'll see the welcome screen in Firefox
