I will see if I can find the Sharp CE158 user manual (RS232/Centronics box 
for the PC1500). If I can, I'll provide more details.

Somewhere I have a printed version of the Z80 Fig lisitng -- it's clearly 
a hack from the 8080 version. A friend of mine once ported it to the 
Tatung Einstein -- I should still have that somewhere too...

Hunting around on this machine I've found what seems to be the Macro-11 
source for PDP11 Fig-forth (RT11/RSX-11/standalone) and the 143K file of 
blocks contianing things like the Forth assembler, etc. I believe them to 
be public-domain and if anyone wants them (and can make them available 
for download, etc) they're welcome to them.

You would get the 2 versions that I already have :-). I'd like to see the 
6809 fig forth (I assume it existed, and used the 2 hardware stack 
pointers, etc).
