<https://github.com/Alhadis/Roff-Character-Tests/blob/cefd35c189cc34c55ac79bb6e1838cf0907e7776/bytes.c>
to "import" binary files in a running SIMH session, and this
<https://github.com/Alhadis/.files/blob/80dff841eefc98ccd4fc848c747a7585c68bec1a/bin/od-to-binary>
to unpack the output of `od -b` (which I copy+paste from my terminal).

Excellent!  Except...maybe my JS environment is too old?


$ unod otroff.odbout 
/home/branden/bin/unod:24
  .flat();
   ^

TypeError: fs.readFileSync(...).trim(...).split(...).map(...).map(...).flat is
not a function

Any ideas?

> It feels amateurish and hacky, so I've recently been reading up on SIMH
configuration and if there's a way of "mounting" a directory on the host
system so that files can be shared with a running SIMH session (a la,
VirtualBox). I'll let you know if I succeed...

I haven't heard of anyone doing anything like this, but you might try the
archives of the TUHS list.
