Before I asked this question I had already searched the Archie database for the string "8751" and found nothing. I realized an hour ago that that was a mistake. This family of CPUs is generically referred to as "8051" or "8x51", especially the former. I went back to Archie and tried "8051", and found that the answer to my question is *YES*. I append an edited version of my session so that those of you who are not familiar with Archie can see how easy it can be to make such a search. I have edited the output to condense it and to delete a number of irrelevant pattern matches with numeric strings. It appears that there may be at least two, and possibly three, different PD assemblers available for the 8x51 CPUs (compare the correlations of the sizes, dates and names of the files in the various servers). If you don't have Internet service you can still access the Archie service by sending E-mail queries to the server (send the word 'help' as the subject or in the body of a message to archie@cs.mcgill.ca). I have not yet fetched any of the files which Archie told me about, but I will RSN. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Archie session 11June91 searching for "8051" =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= telnet 132.206.2.3 Connected to 132.206.2.3.
