    OT, but I'm thinking of writing/converting Nils's source text to DOS x86
    asm;- it doesn't look as if there's a DOS port out there (Javascript
    doesnt count, IMO!).

    LADDER.COM is a BASCOM executable, meaning it was once a BASIC program
    that was compiled. I have a long-term project which aims to reproduce
    the source code, sans proper variable names -- of course, so that it is
    100% authentic. I've done some work with BASCOM and IDA to suss out how
    it compiles code, but I'm far short of an automated decompiler.

    BASIC source would have been portable, but it doesn't seem to be
    available.

    There is a DOS .COM file in the archive [1] and the same source code
    compiles to DOS, CP/M, and Unix executables without any changes. All
    you need is a T3X/0 compiler [2]. There are pre-compiled compilers for
    DOS and CP/M on the homepage.

    Thanks, sorry I didn't look that far earlier.
