    Release 3 is not unknown, the Zapple 12K BASIC manual here is for version 3:
    https://www.autometer.de/unix4fun/z80pack/ftp/altair/

    Also documents the CP/M version, but version 3 binaries/sources are
    not available unfortunately.
    too bad. Have seen references to TDL 3.0 for CPM in CPMUG and SIGM but can't find a binary. I did find a disassembly of v. 2.1 with I fixed and added CPM disk routines for loading and saving programs. If you want a copy, let me know, I would glad to
    send you a copy.

    Problem with v 2.1 is that there is no capability to read/write files under program control. I have been toying with the idea of implementing the IO byte function and adding OPEN and CLOSE for 2.1. This would at least give the capability to read and
    write ascii files under program control. Adding more
    is beyond my limited programming ability.
