Upstream hasn't replied to the issue I opened about how they want to take the fork back in. There are 3 open PRs. Seems like maybe he's not paying attention to it. Anyway, the code…

When PCjs hit the front page a couple weeks back I noticed VAX was conspicuously missing and couldn't resist seeing VMS run in a web browser. Claude Code running Opus 5 meticulousl…
