This archive presents the index to DART files recorded on tape at SAIL between November 1972 and August 1990. SAIL text files were encoded in a non-standard 7-bit character set which has been translated into UTF8 equivalents. Many SAIL binary files, such as vector plots, animation, television camera digital images, and music have been converted into HTML5 embedded formats. Demonstration of SAIL PDP-10 programs is possible using Javascript. The exact bits of each SAIL file is available in octal. Other contributions to this web site include films, scanned paper documents, and analog snapshot pictures from the period. Here is the 1972 Rolling Stone article about SAIL, a 2009 reunion group picture, links to reunion video talks given at Stanford 22 November 2009. The Celebration of John McCarthy's Accomplishments at Stanford 25 March 2012 YouTube.com links are listed here with text.
