       .TYPE V4USER.TXT

       Welcome to RT-11 Version 4. RT-11 V04 provides new hardware support

       and some major enhancements over Version 3B.

       Please use the HELP command;  it describes the new options in many

       of the utilities.

       If you are using a terminal that requires fill characters,

       modify location 56 with a Deposit command before proceeding with

       system installation. LA36 DECwriter II and VT52 DECscope terminals

       do NOT require such modification.

       .D 56=0

       .

     Now you are at the RT-11 prompt and can exercise the system.

     There is no 'halt' or 'shutdown' command, just terminate the

     simulator or backend server session.
