PDP10-TOOLS
===========
pdp10-tools is a collection of utilities for pdp10-elf.
pdp10-tools is a collection of utilities for pdp10-elf:
elf2boot: converts PDP-10 ELF-36 and ELF-64 executables to KLH10-bootable files
libelf: reading and writing ELF-32, ELF-36, and ELF-64 object files
sim: a simulator for running PDP-10 ELF-36 executables on a
hypothetical fully-extended PDP10 called the KE10
stdio9: reading and writing nonet-based files on an octet-based host
The following components were developed for the PDP-10 ELF-36 project
and are now deprecated given the PDP-10 ELF-64 support in GNU binutils:
ar: archiver for pdp10-elf object files
archive: reading and writing archives containing pdp10-elf object files
as: assembler producing pdp10-elf object files
intended primarily as an assembler for GCC output;
the syntax is modelled after normal UNIX/ELF syntax
rather than classic TOPS-10, TOPS-20, or ITS syntax
elf2boot: converts pdp10-elf executables to KLH10-bootable files
ld: linker for pdp10-elf object files
nm: list symbols from pdp10-elf object files
od: file dumper for binary files with 9-bit bytes (nonets)
ranlib: add an index to a pdp10-elf archive (same as `ar s`)
readelf: display information about pdp10-elf object files,
extended with an option to disassemble .text sections
sim: a simulator for running pdp10-elf executables on a
hypothetical fully-extended PDP10 called the KE10
8to9: a utility to convert octet files to nonet files and back
Support libraries include:
archive: reading and writing archives containing pdp10-elf object files
pdp10_elf36: reading and writing pdp10-elf (aka Elf36) object files
pdp10_stdio: reading and writing nonet-based files on an octet-based host
See the TODO file for known omissions and planned improvements.
