As my memory serves, there was a class given by the Southern California
Computer Society (SCCS) in which the disassembled the Altair Basic (not
sure if it was the 4k or 8k version) and used the output of that
disassembly for the class. There was a guy who had the complete
annotated (by the class) of the source as printed out copies in his
trunk, which he just handed out to anyone that asked for it. This was
somewhere between 1975-1978 (76-77 most likely) when I was a member of SCCS.

I wonder if the source, not just the listing is
available. It would be
interesting to build it on TOPS-10 running on a KA-10 simulated on Simh.
Given the extent that it was pirated in the early days, I strongly
suspect that there have been disassembled sources around for at least a
few decades.
