two-decade old FOCAL interpreter doc/listing

Some time back, someone asked me about an old 6502-based FOCAL interpreter of
which I have both source code and documentation. This work was written by Wayne
Wall of the Denver Area 6502 Users' Group back in the late '70's, for use with
the Digital Group machine with their 6502 CPU board. The version I have is set
up to run under APEX, IIRC, and I've lost and rediscovered this listing and
instructions several times. I've re-examined it and decide that it's not of
sufficient quality to warrant an attempt on my part to scan it, since I have,
purportedly, the source files in machine-readable form on FD, albeit in a format
that requires me to resurrect a system for which the FDC no longer exists.

If somebody wants this listing, printed on contiuous form 8-1/2x11"sheet white
paper, it's yours for the price of USPS Priority Mail shipping ($3.50?) It's a
stack about 3/4" thick. Contact me via email to make arrangements, preferably
BEFORE it submerges into the mire once again.
