I had the Byte Book back in the 80s. It went during one of my many shifts.

IIRC, There is a listing of both the Compiler and the Translator in 
8080 code. These were hand transcriptions, it seems, of each line of the
North Star BASIC programs into 8080 assembly.

Once again, if IIRC, the two sets of programs were not strictly
interchangeable because of slight differences in RAM addresses,
etc. however the Tiny Pascal opcodes produced would have been 
interchangeable.

Just double-check the 8080 runtime listings, if there are two of 
those. It's possible that they may be different too. I can't remember
back that far.

Thanks for that. I didn't find any the last time I looked.
