I come to yo= u today in my search for some non-UNIX materials for a change. The followi= ng have been on my search list lately in no particular priority: - Standards: COBOL 68 C 89 C++ 98 Minimal BASIC 78 Full BASIC 87 SQL (any rev) IS0 9660 (CD FS, any rev) ISO 5807 (Flow Charts, any rev) - Manuals: PDP-11/20 Processor Handbook (EAE manual too if it's separate) WE32000 and family literature GE/Honeywell mainframe and G(E)COS documents The IBM 704 FORTRAN Manual (The -original- FORTRAN book) The Codasyl COBOL Report (The -original- COBOL book) Any Interdata 7 or 8/32 documentation (or other Interdata stuff really) The Ti TMS9918 manual The Philips "Red Book" CDDA standard If it's part of one, the Bell System Practices Issue containing, or sep= arately otherwise, BSP 502-503-101 (2500 and 2554 reference)=20 If any of these are burning a hole in your bookshelf and you'd like to sell= them off, just let me know, I'll take em off your hands and make it worth = your while. I'm not hurting for any of them, but rather, I see an opportun= ity to get things on my shelf that may facilitate expansion of some of my e= xisting projects in new directions in the coming years. Also, I'm in full understanding of the rarity of some of these materials an= d would like to stress my interest in quality reference material. Of cours= e, that's not to dismiss legitimate valuation, rather, simply to inform tha= t I intend to turn no profit from these materials, and wherever they wind u= p after their (hopefully very long) tenure in my library will likely have h= appened via donation. - Matt G. P.S. On that last note, does anyone know if a CHM registration of an artifa= ct[1] means they truly have a physical object in a physical archive somewhe= re? That's one of the sorts of things I intend to look into in however man= y decades fate gives me til I need to start thinking about it.
