FWIW, me too. I have the ACW and the ARM evaluation system (BBC Micro

I know, look in the sources of ACW kermit and see
who ported it :-)
I was amazed (and depressed) that the ARM port of Kermit was simply
my ACW port with another layer added to fake out the ACW routines,
which themselves were just a veneer over BBC OSBytes! What a mess!
In case you're interested and/or have bits to offer, I'm trying to
preserve whatever media (docs and software) I can for some of the more
unusual Acorn odds and ends (ABC range, 32016 second processor, ARM
Evaluation Kit, Springboard etc.) I'm yet to find *anything* that was marketed for
the ACW; it's possible
that PSpice ran on it, and possibly the QuickChip software (Witchy seems
I am pretty sure Reduse3 (computer algebra system) ran on the ACW or the
Beeb + 32016 coproceossr. I don't have it, I don't know anyone who's got it.
