SPACWR (OS/8) (1974)
A conversion of Ahl's BASIC-PLUS SPACWR to the much smaller OS/8 BASIC. The file has many backslash-separated statements per line. Run here, as archived, on a OS/8 profile inferred from the listing: number printing, precision, the prompt and error text are stand-ins. Uses OS/8 string joining with &, SEG$ and PNT; PNT(29) and PNT(31) control codes are dropped, and CHAIN to the separate instructions file prints it and carries on (an approximation of the chain).
