With the
configuration I have (assume I can get 32K words of core, and have the I/O cards
I listed) what can I run on it?
Aside from blinkenlight programs, in the not-to-distant future there should be a
stand-alone version of HP BASIC available. A friend and I are working on assembling it
from source. (There are probably old binaries out there somewhere but I haven't
obtained one).
I have the binary tape image for HP BASIC somewhere other than in the
core of my HP2116. The source is up on bitsavers scanned (and OCR'd)
from a listing that I have had since 1971.
A bunch of tape images for HP stuff is up on bitsavers
(
http://bitsavers.org/bits/HP/HP_1000_software_collection). I also came
into a fair number of HP paper tapes but I haven't yet had the time to
check them against what's on bitsavers to see if I have anything that
isn't already there.
