[TUHS] New project to recreate the B compiler for the PDP-11

I just started a project to recreate the B compiler for the PDP-11 as authentically as possible, given the few fragments that remain and some educated guesswork. It should be fun (for various definitions of fun). Here is the repository https://github.com/rswier/pdp11-B I have borrowed some tools from Warren's https://github.com/DoctorWkt/unix-jun72 I have made a good start at reverse engineering the B run time library in /usr/lib/libb.a. I have tried to make the source match the same style as the earliest C library found on the last1120c-bits tape. The remaining functions in libb.a include printf and printn which appear to be written in B. This should provide more clues needed to create the compiler. I am also tackling the dis-assembly of the threaded code interpreter /usr/lib/bilib.a (which at the moment is a big mess on my hard-drive) Later steps will include creating the B compiler itself by carefully pruning down the last1120c C compiler. The fun here will be to boot-strap the B compiler without help from any existing modern compilers. I think TMG will come into play to make that happen. All are welcome to contribute! Rob
