Version 2.1 of the cross-compiler that compiles PL/M-86 code on an
8080/8085-based development system running ISIS-II has been sent to
Jeff. If there are others who would like it, see me or him directly.
The old meets the new, and the old triumphs!

Ok, I have found the 8" floppy disk with the
ISIS-II PL/M-86 compiler
on it. It is transferring at the blazing speed of 2400 bits/second
using Kermit protocol into a PC. From that point I will be able to
send it to a computer that sends my e-mails out. So we wait for 2400
bits/second to transfer the plm86 compiler with its overlay files. It
really is slow. I love the technology, but it is slow!
Stay Tuned for Updates!

Yes, I do! Thanks!

Jeff,
Your requests all came through today. Don't know what was wrong
with the list server, but at the same time I saw your request here
I saw someone telling you that you have e-mail.
My question is this. Do you still need the PLM-86 that runs under
ISIS-II? If so, I can probably locate it. I'll have to serial
transfer it from my MDS to a PC, so I don't want to do it if you
already have it.
Let me know if you still need it.
Dave

I purchased the Godbout 85/88 card for my Imsai 8080, seems to
be working
fine so far, although
not at 5Mhz. I must have a memory card that can't handle the
blazing 5 Mhz
access.
I am looking for a PLM86 compiler. I have the PLM80 compiler and
linker/locator
(if anyone needs this, please let me know) but am struggling
finding the
PLM86
compiler and associated linker/locator. I am currently loading
code into my
system via a HEX loader I wrote and sending the hex file in
via the serial
port
from my Mac Pro (yes, a $5000 quad-processor computer serving
as a dumb
terminal
to my 2Mhx 8080).
I want to be able to write PLM86 code and do the same for the
8088 on the
GodBout card.
Anyone know where I can find PLM86?
