It may have but I only farted around in it bc my real job was in interlisp (plus it was strongly typed iirc which i was allergic to in those days). Yeah, all the D machines booted into an Also mode (which itself was a kind of NOVA).
Even the KL-10 clone (MAXC) had an Alto as its front end processor (real dec ones used a PDP-11!)
