To start ITS, type `./start`. If you see `KLH10#`, type `go` and
Enter. If you see the `DSKDMP` prompt, type `its`, press Enter, and
then `ESC g`. If you use the `pdp10-kl` emulator there is no prompt
and you need to type `Esc L ITS`, press Enter, and then `ESC g`.
then <kbd>ESC</kbd><kbd>G</kbd>. If you use the `pdp10-kl` emulator there is no prompt
and you need to type <kbd>ESC</kbd><kbd>L</kbd> `ITS`, press Enter, and then <kbd>ESC</kbd><kbd>G</kbd>.
Eventually, you will see `SYSTEM JOB USING THIS CONSOLE`. You are now
ready to log in, so type Control-Z. See [doc/DDT.md](doc/DDT.md) for
ready to log in, so type <kbd>CTRL</kbd><kbd>Z</kbd>. See [doc/DDT.md](doc/DDT.md) for
a list of useful commands.
Alternatively to logging in directly in the system console window,
which will always be displaying daemon messages, you may prefer to
use a seperate terminal session for logging in. To do this just
run `telnet localhost 10003` from another shell window and press
<kbd>CTRL</kbd><kbd>Z</kbd> to log in there.
To shut down ITS, type `:lock` and then `5down`. Log yourself out to
avoid the 5 minute grace period: type `:logout`. When ITS writes
`SHUTDOWN COMPLETE`, it's safe to stop the emulator.
`SHUTDOWN COMPLETE`, it's safe to stop the emulator. Press <kbd>CTRL</kbd><kbd>\\</kbd>
to escape to the simulator command prompt and `quit` to close it. If
you had a separate telnet user session running you can similary
press <kbd>CTRL</kbd><kbd>\[</kbd> and then exit telnet.
ITS can optionally use some additional peripheral devices. To attach
a simulated GT40 graphics terminal, type `./start gt40`. If you run
the KA10 emulator, you can use the Knight TV raster display by typing
`./start tv11 tvcon`. On a TV, type <kbd>F1</kbd> instead of <kbd>Control-Z</kbd>.
`./start tv11 tvcon`. On a TV, type <kbd>F1</kbd> instead of <kbd>CTRL</kbd><kbd>Z</kbd>.
To install your personal user files, add a subdirectory under `user`
with your files inside. They will be copied to ITS. The directory
