Hi Joe,
Thanks for responding.
What version?  That's a good question.  The only information that I have is
a reference to the tools in my old MCS-8 User's Manual.  I've never had,
seen, nor used the original software, so I don't know what version.  The
MCS-8 manual is dated November 1974.  It also describes a MCS-8 Cross
Assembler Software Package (MAC 8) and MCS-8 Simulator Software Package
(INTERP 8).
There is also a reference to MCS-8 User's Program Library with items like:
Binary Search Subroutine
Floating Point Arithmetic Package
8-bit multiply
8-bit divide
etc..
On the back/inside cover of the manual it states under "Ordering
Information":
PL/M Compiler Software Package (written in Fortran IV)
MCS-8 Cross Assembler and Simulator Software Package (written in Fortran IV)
The manual states that both are "available via time sharing service or
directly from Intel".
I have source for PL/M version 2.0  (January 1975) which is 8080 specific
(The source and documents contain no references to "8008".  So what I'm
looking for I guess predates that.  Unless this version produces code (or
could be modified to produce code) that is 8008 compatible.  I haven't yet
looked into that idea.
If what you have in 8" floppies could be transferred to a DOS diskette or
even emailed to me or placed on some ftp sire I could check it out and see
if its what I'm looking for.  Let me know what you need to do that: $$ or
trade or whatever.
Thanks!

 John,
   I think I have all of that stuff on 8" floppy disks for the
 Intel MDS but
 I don't know if it is 8080 only or if it will produce 8008 code.  Do you
 know anything about what version you need?

 Hi.  I'm new to the list and this is my first
posting.  I am looking for
PL/M cross compiler that Intel produced for the 8008 CPU.  I 
 have the Intel
 manual, but no source or object for the language
compiler, which 
 was written
 in Fortran by Gary Kildall when he worked for
Intel back in 
 ~1973.  I have
 source for an 8080 version of PL/M from Intel
which went into the public
domain at some time, but I do not believe that it will produce 8008 code
(that ability is not mentioned in the documentation).  Any help or
information on this would be appreciated.
Also, a macro assembler or a basic interpreter would also be appreciated!
Anything would be better than hand assembling and jamming in bytes via
switches.
Thanks,
John
