At one point, years ago, I acquired a set of the tools for
doing WCS microprogramming. I may still have them somewhere
in my collection, but I have not seen them for awhile.
What I do still have is a copy of the WCS user's guide, with
explanations of the microprogramming instructions and how
to use the micro assembler/loader/debugger. I attempted to
make a copy for another member of this list, but the copier
damaged several pages (not badly, but I am gun-shy about
trying it again, at least with auto-feed).
