I think WPS arrives on floppy. How sure are you the ROM's firmware
provides the date routines used by WPS rather than it just dishing up
something more crude with WPS doing the work of turning it into a date?
I got the ROM disassembly you pointed me to and took a look at it.
Thanks, Ralph.
You're right--it's WPS-8 itself that has the date/time routines that
need patching.
So now I'm looking for a WPS-8 disassembly, and if possible the source
code, which I assume is in PDP-8 assembler.
Is there a forum that PDP-8 folks hang out in where I could ask for leads?
Thanks,
