Installing Basic-Plus-2 is a bit more complicated. The versions available are 2.5 and 2.7. Unfortunately, the 2.7 tape image is broken. And also unfortunately, the 2.5 install process is not entirely compatible with the version of RSX11M-Plus that is available. So some tricks are needed; first, the basic install procedure from 2.7 is used to create a couple of files that are required, then the rest follows the 2.5 process – but some steps need to be done by hand, because the installer assumes that the ‘slow task builder’ is available, but it isn’t. And a specific option is required to load the compiler task.
\nIn configuring BP2, it is essential to choose to build the resident library. You won’t notice the difference when you’re just running BP2 on simh, but on the fpga not having the resident library means a lot of disk access while a basic program is running.

\nThis starts the BP2BLD dialogue. The BP2BLD dialogue asks you
\nquestions so you can select the options for your BASIC-PLUS-2
\ncompiler. The default answer for each question is in angle
\nbrackets. To select the default, press the RETURN key. If
\nyou do not want the default answer, type in the answer you want.
\nYou should read the BASIC-PLUS-2 installation guide before you
\nbegin the BP2BLD dialogue. Some of the answers you select
\ncan result in additional questions or the omission of certain
\nquestions later in the dialogue. If you are not sure how to
\nanswer a question, you can either type a question mark (?) for a
\nbrief explanation or see the BASIC-PLUS-2 installation guide for
\nmore information.
\nThe BP2BLD program prints a summary of your answers at the end
\nof the dialogue. If you want to change your answers, answer YES
\nto the question at the end of the summary, at this point, the
\nBP2BLD program runs the BP2BLD dialogue again. If you choose an
\noption other than the default, your choice is enclosed in angle
\nbrackets as the default answer for that question.
\nIf you want to change an answer during the dialogue but before
\nthe summary, type the escape key (<ESC>) to back up to the
