Subject: Scheme for 32016
I was tidying up some old disc a while ago, and I found that one of the
DFS ones was a recycled disc - under the label was another almost illegible
one that said something like: 'Scheme for 32106 second processor. Copyright
'The Rand Corporation'. Apart from having anything with such a 'spook' label,
I wonder if anyone else has ever seen a copy. Mine came in with a box of
junkthat uncluded a 32016 that had ben scrapped froma workstation, (sadly
a 1 meg board).
I later cased up the 32016 and got it working, luckily finding a scrap dealer
I knew locally had some sets of PANOS. It took a while to find the welcome
disc, (needed for the graphics library), but I got it working, until my
secondhand power supply died earlier this year. I'm considering a repar,
and whilst I'm at it, wondering what other software there was for the 32016,
(aprt from the supplied BBC Basic, Pascal, FORTAN, C and LISP). I beleive
there is a BCPL I now know there was a 'Scheme', and I've heard rumours of
a version of SPICE. Anybody know anything more?
