Unfortunately, these have expired. However, I can provide a version that
will run for 240 minutes for those that are interested in giving the
language a try on their own systems.

That's just packaging. The demo is the Entry Level at the v1.19 level and
is packaged as a .zip file containing 5 .zip files and some additional
documentation files.

This installs with the standard IBM Software Installer.

If you are interested, I am sure we can take your diskettes and turn them
into a large zip file that you can unzip and install and will result in a
ready to use 1.19 installation. This way you don't have to worry about
diskettes going bad.
