Hi,
As some of you may recall, a few years ago I asked for assistance
reading a 9 track tape containing IBM S/360 source for Martinus
Veltman's computer algebra program, Schoonschip
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schoonschip). With Chuck's assistance,
we recovered all the code from the tape. After working with the
principals involved, I am pleased to announce that the source code is
now publicly available at:
https://vsys.physics.lsa.umich.edu/
Neat. I vaguely remember that program name from long ago, though I haven't used it.
(Part of why it's familiar is that it's a nice Dutch word hard to pronounce for
most others... :-) )
I wonder how difficult it would be to port to a present-day compiler like gfortran.
