Altair 680 Basic locations?
I see that the KC cassette version of the 680 basic code is "out there". Has anyone posted a version of the S1/S9 code as a text file?? Does Microsoft know about this? Do they care?? I don't see anywhere where links are shown.
I'd be very interested in this. I've (somewhere) got one of the cassettes (long ago, it is buried now, I suspect) and want to adapt it to a different ACIA based monitor. As I remember it, the "instruction manual" was a small sheet of paper (less than letter size) printed on both sides. I never built a KC tape box. I had an ASR33 teletype and then a floppy disk (all 100k of it!). The other basic (Uiterwyk's) that is BCD based (more accurate, slower) I long ago typed in the source. Interesting how you find out about how basic works inside. The Microsoft (Altair 680) one used tokens, the Uiterwyk one always re-scanned the text (slower). |
