The Call-Apple issue with the source code lists version 1.6 (dated 7/27/91) of MicroDot. According to the article, the issue CD contains a DSK image of MicroDot and text manual. I have that CD but there is no image or manual to be found.
This is not surprising. Sad, but not surprising.
I don't know if Call-Apple was granted exclusive permission to release/ distribute MicroDot, but if you can get permission or clear-up the current status of MicroDot, I can make available a disk image of my complete MicroDot package (version 1.4 dated 3/21/91), including manual.
If the message I posted from a conversation with Howard Katz isn't proof enough, I'm sure he would supply whatever he has. Likewise, I'm still searching through email archives as available. I can't recall exactly when we talked though.
If nothing else, I can ask again. I wonder if he would like to release this on his website. I think I will go ahead and check.
I don't know what the difference between version 1.6 and 1.4 is, but I can say that 1.4 appears stable and bug-free.
I couldn't say either. Most likely a bug fix. IIRC, most functionality was from external modules but this is simply my recollection from way back and it isn't always reliable.
