Ancient 6502 FOCAL source code

I'll happily give you a copy of the source, (to be forwarded under separate
cover) and, if you like, I'll even give you a copy of the PAL65 Assembler binary
and source. Unfortunately, they run under a locally written OS for the APPLE][,
called APEX, and you may have a problem using the sources without a good bit of
whittling. Of course, I've also got the sources for the OS, but it's written in
a locally generated HLL, called XPL0, (yes, that's a zero, not an 'O;') and
that's not mine to give away without first checking with the owner. I doubt it
will be a problem, though. I just want to respect the rights of the authors.
