In mid May, I worked some on the debugger and picked and adapted several changes to all the TSRs, and increased the TSRs' private versions to 1.20. All documentation text files (.txt) in https://pushbx.org/ecm/doc/ were adjusted to use CR LF line endings (unix2dos).
On two occasions I have been asked, — "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?" In one case a member of the Upper, and in the other a member of the Lower, House put this question. I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.
