I grabbed the tape from https://steubentech.com/~talon/pdp10/advent.tap
and installed it into the guest account. It comes with an .EXE, but
evidently the FORTRAN that built it was different than mine. I can't
compile it either.

I tried all this as OPERATOR as well, so no permission problems. There's
code in the files; it transfered in from the tape. By the date of the
.RELs, it compiled those but didn't link the .EXE.

I know next to nothing about FORTRAN and how to build with it. Is my
FORTRAN diffent from the one I need?

I could probably play Adventure on one of my other systems, but it would
be nice to get some experience with building/run programs on TOPS-10
(7.04). Are there multiple FORTRAN versions there? Can I select the
correct one with maybe a switch or something?
