It was a terrible beast. One place to submit card decks + undergraduate procrastination was an unhappy combination. Later there was a crude form a timesharing grafted on to it, with some very shrill terminals attached. The details are mercifully vague but I think you basically had a 'session' and whatever files you created in that session didn't persist once you'd logged out. I remember trying to use the C compiler on that DEC-20 but never got very far with it; I thought the SAIL compiler was more interesting. Shows what foresight I had... -- Jim (op.davis@science.utah.edu, iirc)
