I guess you can find out about it and other stuff from people who saved the stuff while it was still available. I still have a floppy with nearly all if not all of the basic interpreter stuff. The biggie though is a tarball of ftp://blazie.com while it was still up. I got that from someone on this list, I think it was Igor Geths. I could probably host all that, but don't want trouble from FS over doing so. As for the clunky editor ... while it isn't like what we have today, it was good enough to take me through part of grade school, all of high school, and a couple years of university. I did the majority of my school work and papers on my bns, and still think back fondly on the process. There was something magical about brailling into a video tape sized device on my lap, being able to spell check, and prepare it for printing.
