    Can you find out what's actually on the disk? Starting the program or at least getting the filename might help in identifying the program.

    Is it possible there were Oxford A, Oxford B, ... floppies? The only other compiler ref for Oxford I can find for the Commodore series was a BASIC compiler (mostly targeted at the PET series...)
