+Open SimH (History Simulator) is a collection of simulators for
+historically significant or just plain interesting computer hardware
+and software from the past.
+The goal of the project is to create highly portable system simulators
+and to publish them as freeware on the Internet, with freely available
+copies of significant or representative software.
+
+Open SIMH provides a large (and growing) number of simulators:

+This package contains the Open Simh version, the 4.X stream,
+which can be found in github.
+Open SimH is more advanced and implements more simulators than
+the "classic" SimH, but is also CI/CD work.
+
+Note: Please add /opt/open-simh/bin to your $PATH or simply
+      invoke each simulator with open-simh-"name".
+      Example: open-simh-vax
