Define a new "device type" for the Pi's network stack, which SimH would recognize and forward the data to/from the inner PDP-8. Just to pick some random numbers, device ID 42 might be straight UDP, with sub-commands for setting communication parameters, device ID 43 the same for TCP, then maybe some higher-level ones for speaking common protocols like HTTP so all the parsing doesn't have to be done in 4 kwords of core on a box where ASCII is optional. | ||||
