Several hundred pages though; might take me a while to scan them. Nag me
off-list.
Your namesake Nigel Williams down under may also have some relevant info.
Thanks for the notoriety. I just have the TD-700 reference manual as
per bitsavers in printed form. I make the count of 4 existent TD-700s, that is pretty
good for such
an unusual terminal.

Sorry Nigel, I thought you actually had one (and not just in your dreams ;-)
I have one but it's missing several cards and will presumably never work
again, although I did have dreams for a while of somehow driving the display
with modern hardware.
FWIW I also have an unpopulated 4-slot control unit for the display-only
version; considering the size and weight I expect they'll both end up being
recycled some day although I may keep the display 'just in case'...
