I'm wondering what happened to the MINT (Machine-Independent Organic
Software Tools) system that was described in the monograph of the same
name by D Hendry et al.  I assume it didn't take the world by storm, as
I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere recently.  It's an interpreted
system with a very simple virtual machine, for which I implemented an
interpreter on a 6502-based system a while ago.  I thought for a grin
I'd do the same on an ARM machine (which would give me a factor of 10
speed increase, I reckon), but I don't have the distribution tape
anymore.  Any pointers would be gratefully received. 

Thanks in advance, Pete Cockerell.
