Should be in there somewhere. The IMD files are ImageDisk format. The ZIP
files contain the extracted CP/M files.  I ran it some years ago but don't

Some time ago I started working on an AMDASM clone written in Python 3, but

I haven't heard of a general-purpose microcode disassembler. I wrote a
custom disassembler for the Atari Am2900-based "Math Box" used in
Battlezone, Red Baron, and Tempest, and a few others for even more obscure
