I think this is Racal-Readac, one of the early PCB software vendors (from the UK).
Later bought up by Zunken (the big three are Cadence, Mentor, Zunken).
Is the source straight PDP-15 assembly, or a mix with another high level language?
It would be great to look at this, I hope it makes it to bitsavers...

I'm interested.
PDP-15 software in any form is pretty rare

I have a set of around 5 to 8 binders with printed

LIMITED PCB CAD system. The name of the software seems to be REDAL 3 MARK

First of all does anyone has more info on the REDAL software from REDAC?
Then secondly is there anyone interested in these binders with listings? I
think the quality of printout is good enough to do OCR on.
Note that there is no guarantee that these are the complete set of binders
with listings.
