Hi Nigel,

I think you are referring to the Inmos Portakit product. It was an instruction set interpreter which ran a sub-set of early transputer instructions and could run the Occam 1 compiler.

I re-created a modern Windows 32-bit console application a few years ago, after I got my hands on the original tape and the Inmos Portakit manual. The manual is a large green folder and the tape is VAX/VMS magnetic tape. I managed to recover all the data off the tape.

A version of the Portakit was also released for the Atari ST called K-Occam made by Kuma Software.  

Check out my website link for details:

Let me know if you need any more information.


Regards

Gavin
