This is fascinating, thank you for preserving this work!
Do you have more details on the machine used by your father to develop these utilities? what process did you follow to extract these from the 3.5mm floppy disk?
- norton120 2y agoI know we had a 486 at some point when I was a kid, but this code would have predated that machine by a few years so I'm not entirely sure. There were also machines at the school (where he worked) but not 100% sure what they had when. I got fortunate with the disks - I just bought a USB 3.5mm reader and hooked it up to my Ubuntu machine, and there the files were, no corruption that I can tell. I'm glad other people are also enjoying the find!
- chungy 2y agoIt's 3.5 inches, not millimeters :)
- rsynnott 2y ago3.5mm floppy disks are, of course, what they used to have instead of micro-SD cards.
