I have a full set of manuals and disks around.  I assume that you are looking
for TRSDOS 4.2.  Unless you are writing your own assembly, the tools (languages)
available were real dogs.  In short using TRSBOD in the 16 bit mode was slower
than TRSDOS in the 8 bit mode.

Does anyone know if TRS still makes this stuf available?
If not, are we still bound by the original liscences?
