Don't forget that YOU have, so far, got the only existing copy of the manual for
FOCAL65. Those who what a copy will probably contact YOU to get a copy. (See
why I was so ready to part with it?)
Unfortunately, the source file I have differs from the one of which you have an
assembler listing in that it lacks the complete manual. When I find that, I'll
make it available via the 'net.
I'll forward you the source file under separate cover.

cringe, but that's what available. I've been unable to find the
FOCAL manual, which I incorporated into my last assembly of the code, hence
believe it's on a different diskette from which I last assembled the thing in
'81-'82 or so, as a printer exercise, actually.
Let me know if you want the FOCAL interpreter source, and I'll email it to
you.
