I have just received a copy of Perihelion Software's Helios-PC 
transputer operating system, and although it comes with copious
technical documentation there is very little in the way of example
source code.

In particular I would like to see an example of programming in
parallel using the Component Distribution Language; i.e. the source
of each component program, as well as the CDL file.

If anyone already has experience with Helios, I would be very glad
if you could send me the source of any examples, no matter how
trivial, of such parallel programming.  I would be particularly
interested in examples involving use of the farm constructor.

Thanks,

Nigel Gamble

Hi Nigel, I also have just received a copy of Helios, and am very
disappointed so far.  I have it running on an AT with a b400 board.
However it does not have any I/O worth talking about.  Primarily my gripe is
that I do not know how to talk to me EGA screen, ie set the registers using
an interrupt.  I do not want to use ANSI escape sequences.  Do you have an
AT? I would be interested in any help you may give, you may be more conversant
with the C compiler than I am.  If I here of anyone with CDL examples, or if
we do anything of note here I will let you know.
I can be contacted on
