I've actually just picked up a box of Things which included a copro 
with an original manual (and a load of Acorn blurb including a 
September 1981 'specification sheet' which I'll scan in).

The 6502 Second Processor User Guide contains two parts:
1. The Second Processor itself
2. HiBASIC

There's also a couple of appendices on fitting the ROMs, and the 
D(N)FS differences.

The front cover shows a bloke at a desk, but on the desk is a disk 
wallet marked "6502 Development System" - I've not finished digging, 
you never know... :P
