COSMOS Basic - Extracted Distribution Files

SINTRAN files from the COSMOS Basic Module distribution (see ../README.md; floppy image ../210374E04-XX-01D.img).

File revisions on this media are E02-E04 (the PI sheet describes rev G; names map -G to -E).


Programs (:PROG)

File Program
cos-bas-in-e04.prog COSMOS Basic installation program
cos-conn-to-e02.prog CONNECT-TO client (TAD-over-XMSG terminal access)
cos-fa-serv-e04.prog File-Access server
cos-file-tra-e02.prog File Transfer
cos-fs-admin-e02.prog FS-Administrator
cos-spoo-ser-e02.prog Spooling server
cos-xftra-e02.prog XMSG transport exerciser

Four of these (conn-to, fa-serv, file-tra, xftra) have been fully reverse engineered; see ../../../../SINTRAN/XMSG/DOC/COSMOS-RE/README.md.

Loadable binaries (:BPUN)

cos-cosp-vse-e02.bpun, cos-cosp-vsx-e02.bpun, cos-fau-vse1-e03.bpun, cos-fau-vse2-e03.bpun, cos-fau-vsx-e03.bpun, cos-fsart-e02.bpun (FAU = COSMOS File-Access User, in VSE/VSX variants; each is loaded by its matching .mode file. What COSP and FSART stand for is not verified here - see the install guide.)

Mode files (:MODE)

cos-hent-e04.mode, cos-start-e04.mode (boot/start), plus one install/start mode file per component: cos-cosp-vse-e02.mode, cos-cosp-vsx-e02.mode, cos-def-prin-e02.mode, cos-fa-serv-e04.mode, cos-fau-vse-e03.mode, cos-fau-vsx-e03.mode, cos-fsart-e02.mode, cos-xftra-e02.mode.

How these are wired into the boot sequence is documented in ../COS-BOOT-WIRING.md; the install order is in ../COSMOS-Basic-Install-Guide.md.
