I have no such scanner available that could possible scan these in a good way. I will retrieve them and pack them and get back when we get close to shipping. /Mattis
Re: Source code listings from REDAC PDP-based PCB layout system.
I have a version of the Racal Redac CAD system for the HP 2647 or 2648 graphic terminal I believe. Several DC 100 tapes and one or two boards full of custom ROMs... No documentation. I have not tried to do anything with it yet.

Re: Source code listings from REDAC PDP-based PCB layout system.
I think this is Racal-Readac, one of the early PCB software vendors (from the UK). Later bought up by Zunken (the big three are Cadence, Mentor, Zunken). Is the source straight PDP-15 assembly, or a mix with another high level language? It would be great to look at this, I hope it makes it to bitsavers...

I'm interested.

Source code listings from REDAC PDP-based PCB layout system.
I have a set of around 5 to 8 binders with printed source code listings from a PDP-15 system. The listings appear to be from a REDAC SOFTWARE LIMITED PCB CAD system. The name of the software seems to be REDAL 3 MARK 7. There are dates on the listings in the range 74 and 75. https://i.imgur.com/m1ji9uR.jpg https://i.imgur.com/SzaiH78.jpg First of all does anyone has more info on the REDAL software from REDAC? Then secondly is there anyone interested in these binders with listings? I think the quality of printout is good enough to do OCR on. Note that there is no guarantee that these are the complete set of binders with listings. /Mattis
