.... more or less in the same state of ALGOL-M, that is, needing
OCR/retyping from an hard-to-read source.

Best regards from Italy,

(this Archive collection's uploads ought to be constantly monitored,
because sooner or later the Ur-text of CP/M (Kildall's thesis..) should
surface...)

The e-basic source is already widely available on various cpm distributions.
It is also available on my github site as part of my intel80tools repository, specifically
https://github.com/ogdenpm/intel80tools/tree/master/cpmsrc/basice
The version there builds to recreate the distributed binary. There is also a document that notes the challenges of actually recreating the binary

The thesis was actually v1.2 of the compiler, the widely distributed one is v1.4. I don't expect there are many differences, the main one being the original compiled with the Fortran based PL/M 80 compiler, v1.4 uses the native ISIS compiler. If you wanted to reconstruct the older version it should be relatively straight forward
