I have a book entitled _The Byte Book of Pascal_ that was published
about 12 years ago.  It contains an APL interpreter written entirely
in Pascal (for the CDC6600, I think).  It is somewhere in the neighbor-
hood of 50 pages long.  I typed it all into my Atari ST and now cannot
get it to work.

I suspect that there were errors or omissions in the published listing.
If anyone knows of this program, maybe they can tell me where to get
a list of the fixes for the code in this book.  (Maybe some old issue
of Byte magazine has a list of errors?)

Even better, if some of the authors of this code are net readers . . .
I would appreciate hearing from you very much.  I could tell you what
changes I made to the code for the Atari ST.

( I would write to Byte magazine, but I have had little luck with this
approach in the past on other subjects . . . any Byte magazine people
care to comment on that?)

Thanks much for your help in advance!
