The Last Psion | AlexMar 11, 2023

Did you write code for #Psion machines in the #80s and #90s?

We're calling for you to open source your code!

I'm working with a group of enthusiasts, building a library of information about the SIBO/EPOC16 platform. Your old code could give valuable insight, as well as encourage people to write new code.

We're especially interested in old C and #x86 #assembly.

Upload it to your public repository of choice, and set it free!

These appear to be all binary files. Can't remember how these were created. Maybe the source code is still on the Psion?

@thelastpsion @pitchingniblick @benc Well, not really. Mastodon is a bit of a ghost town at the moment. I only check it once a week…
