| 23:10 | Fix for bug reported in google pidp8i group: os8util.py library not found preventing os8-cp from working. Root cause: forgot to wire in installation of the library.

| 14:17 | Bring in U/W FOCAL replacement module for operation without EAE hardware. Document the work. Add test code. Add stand-alone test script. Update uwfocal-rk05.os8 to build UWFNOE.SV and UWFTST.SV execuatables. Also update Changelog.md check-in: 1e998eb57e user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 03:47 | Snapshot. Publish current draft of non-EAE support for U/W FOCAL: Merged in trunk changes that came in while I was fiddling with this. Add documentation of what's being done in src/uwfocal/NONEAE.md. Point to that documentation in src/uwfocal/README.md Add 8NFIO.PA and 8NFPP.PA, our non-EAE modules. Update scripts/misc/uwfocal-rk05.os8 to build UWFNOE in addition to UWF16K. Now generate listing and bitmap files for when we will need them. Create new scripts/misc/uwf-noneae-test.os8 to be a quick build of 8NFIO for testing. Current status: The emulation is integrated into U/W FOCAL, and it seems to run without totally killing the interpreter. The EAE emulations pass basic tests. Alas, there are corner cases in the code that are still wrong. Even the simple FOCAL statement, "T 3" does not print a 3.0000000e00 as expected. Instead it leaves the FLAC in a state where no more FPP operations are possible. At least "T PI" produces "3.141721908E+00*" as expected, and it didn't do that yesterday. check-in: 7ada921d22 user: poetnerd tags: uwf | |

docs: reformat Python examples with blacken-docs and update style guide

style: convert use of the typing module to direct import style
Switched from qualified forms like `typing.Dict` to direct imports (e.g. `from typing import Dict`). This is the preferred style in the Python community and improves readability. Style change: use of typing module converted to the "direct import" style. This is apparently the preferred style in the Python community for use of this module. check-in: ee093ed80b user: poetnerd tags: pyclean | |

| 22:52 | Refactored use of path_expand and print_expand. path_expand renamed to expand_path.

Moved to new module lib/pidp8i/util.py. check-in: 50792321c1 user: poetnerd tags: pyclean | |

2025-08-13
| ||
| 02:45 | Complete first draft: Python code style and typecheck cleanup. Capitalize class names. Eliminate unused imports and variables. Correct a couple failures to say "continue" in error conditions. Add type hints to arguments and return values. All regular expression strings are now 'r' strings. Convert replies from list to tuple. (Makes type hinting simpler and cleaner.) Add bool False component to simh replies to make it the same as os8 replies. Created properties in simh object: child, context, simh_replies, os8_replies simh_replies_rex, os8_replies_rex Quit trying to print and use the _child.before and _child.after values directly: Wrappers around _child.before and _child.after converting non-string values to strings. dbg_before(prefix:str), dbg_after(prefix:str) for debug printing of before and after. child_before(), child_after() converts non-string values to strings. In os8pkg split script merge and install actions into separate procedures. Return empty string instead of None where possible. Taught pip-related procedures how to cope with empty option list. Convert pexpect object from "bytes" to "str" by setting encoding="utf-8" Update example code and .md docs to describe the updated reality check-in: 66b3c8545a user: poetnerd tags: pyclean | |

| 14:16 | I2CB: build process, documentation improvements As this feature is still experimental and to allow the continuous integration to build the simh executable without th installed dependencies (libi2cd), the I2CB device logic is not included in the build by default for now, but configure offers the --i2c-bridge option to enable it, provided the libi2cd lib and header file can be found. leaf check-in: 36a77478e0 user: HBEggenstein tags: i2c-bridge-device | |
