Please consider that Woz wrote Integer Basic by hand with no assembler. The
fact that there is some reference to instructions specific to their actions
is pretty good.

It was done by hand. Achim did it by writing a program to read the tape file
and interpet the 1's and 0's into bytes and then into hex thus having the
first known text copy of Apple I Integer Basic. There was a lot of work, yet
everybody seems to nit pick at the little things. Has anybody considered
that English isn't even this guys native language?

Instead of knocking guys who do things like this and blow them out of the
vintage community why don't you show some respect.

What have you done?
