Hi AJ,
I also have some TSC documentation here that you might find useful
including the TSC Assembler System 1.4 source code and the TSC Disassembler
too.

Hope this helps.

Bill, thank you for this thoughtful response.
hand-punching is no small
thing. That is amazing dedication, and from what I know of you, I am not
at all surprised...
Yes, it was absolutely an assembler for the 6800 processor.
Thanks for mentioning the cassette for the Altair, that would be super
retro-geeky cool to play with...but yes, this is an extremely busy season
for most, if not all of us.
It looks like Monty McGraw might have come through with something, so let's
check out his page suggestion.
Thank you!

Thanks, everyone!

AJ .. I did not read the code to determine for myself but what is the
processor / instruction set that goes with the TSC assembler, 6800? I hand punched the entire TSC BASIC to a papertape
so it could be read into
an Altair 680 via Teletype. Given the date on the assembler, and their
BASIC, it is very possible that at that time TSC sold an assembler for
the
6800 then. It should not take long to determine
what instruction set
your
TSC doc pertains to. I might have it in cassette
for the Altair but I am
kind of busy to archive it unless no one has it otherwise. Busy time of
the year.
