I have an original copy of Microsoft BASIC-80 (c)

is for Heath/Zenith systems, but really that part of it is just an
insert at the start of the manual. The rest of the manual is generic
and applicable to all BASIC-80 versions.
Before spending the time to scan it, is this online anywhere already? I
did a google search on
BASIC-80 manual
but didn't find any hits in the first few pages.
Likewise, I have an original manual for a similar vintage MS BASCOM
(basic compiler).
Thanks.
I have had a few responses -- the manual is online already.
Rich Cini has it on his web site, listed as AltairBASIC_1275:
http://highgate.comm.sfu.ca/~rcini/classiccmp/Altair32links.htm
It is also available in his Altair32 emulator bundle.
Fritz Chwolka points out that there is probably at least one version of
it at the
www.trs80.com web site. There are a ton of manuals there. He
also has it mirrored here:

I guess I don't need to scan my copy.
Thank to everyone who replied privately.
