Honestly, a port to a modern architecture, with more standard looking characters (like using # for comments instead of ~ and \n for newline instead of ! ) would be pretty interesting... It's amazing what that people used to be able to do with such limitations. 2k! I can barely make a CRUD app fit in 2G

That 2k would've cost ~$130 in early 1975, roughly $750 in 2024 dollars.
We have the EEs to thank for making the price of bloat inconsequential.

Both the 1979 and 1983, C and Pascal versions, compile fine and work as expected using last versions of respectively TCC and Lazarus on windows 10.
