heh. I remember puzzling at the the
"pushj"'s and "popj"'s in the FOCAL
source code. This was before I had seen a pdp-11 or dec-10.
I spent a summer doing the same thing, but without benefit of source code.
(I still have my reverse-engineered source code for a variety of versions of
PDP-8 Focal.)
Does anyone have the source for FOCAL on line? I used
something called
FOCARL and COLPAC also, derivatives created by some smart guys at
Carleton College.
I found a copy of what looks like the usual version at:
