## Building and running a simulator
### Use Prebuilt Windows Simulators
<!-- ### Use Prebuilt Windows Simulators
Simulators for the Windows platform are built and made available on a regular basis (at least once a week if substantive changes have been made to the codebase).
The prebuilt Windows binaries will run on all versions of Microsoft Windows from Windows XP onward.
They can be accessed at https://github.com/simh/Win32-Development-Binaries

Several relatively recent versions should be available which you can download and use directly.

Obtain the current source code using the "git clone" command to obtain the "master" branch of the open-simh/simh repository.
Depending on your host platform one of the following steps should be followed:

If you are interested in using a simulator with Ethernet networking support (i.e. one of the VAX simulators or the PDP11), then you should make sure you have the correct networking components available. The instructions in https://github.com/simh/simh/blob/master/0readme_ethernet.txt describe the required steps to get ethernet networking components installed and how to configure your environment.

Compiling on windows is supported with recent versions of Microsoft Visual Studio (Standard or Express) and using GCC via the MinGW32 environment. Things may also work under Cygwin, but that is not the preferred windows environment. Not all features will be available as well as with either Visual Studio or MinGW32.
