According to the manual and the article (I have both) it was written for both.
I have the 6502 version.  It's possible I have a papertape of the 6800 version.

There were several that are romable.  Also there was LLLBasic 
(Lawrence Livermore Labs) a 5k basic that was also romable 
(and available on rom).

I have that in hardcopy as part of a Best of Interface Age anthology
Volume 1 Software in Basic. That had LLLBASIC for 8080, Dr Wangs Palo 
Alto TB, National NIBL, and Robert Uiterwyks 4K 6800 basic (floppy 
rom experiement).

I'd be surprized if most of that wasn't already on line somewhere.
