Oh, but there is.  A lot of it is on paper, not electronic, but I did 
type in the winning Christmas card program.  I've also written some 
fractals, and started work on a map projections suite.

I'm not sure how best to get the stuff to you, though.  Maybe the best 
way is for me to record a tape and post it.  (Heavy, though :-( )  I got 
my 4052 talking to a Commodore 8050 disk drive, though, so if you can 
get hold of one of those, we might be able to exchange stuff on disk.

(Using a 405x with an 8050 is a PAIN.  You send all the commands to the 
drive to find the file and be ready to load it.  You then type OLD at 8 and 
what does the machine do?  Why, asserts IFC, of course.  But there are 
ways around this.  I wonder if I can find my notes...)

Anyway, let me know if you're interested, and what sort of stuff you'd 
like, and I'll see what I can do.

Philip.
