Anyone have a copy of this DECtape ?
It's pictured here at the UVA computer museum
http://www.cs.virginia.edu/brochure/museum.html

More likely it was a compiler/pcode interpreter
for a PDP10or 11, but I could be wrong. Year: 1969-70

The ucsd p-system museum has a DCD6400 tape they
can read with the source to a ver early Pascal system.
Since Pascal was first written for the CDC 6600, the
DECtape mentioned above was likely an early port.

They give this link to a Jensen Wirth interpreter- but it's dead

Finding the files pasint.pas and pascom.pas on a PDP10 tape
from ETH Zurich would be starting point.

I was able to find source for a pascal -s compiler
