Yes, sorta. This Wikipedia article tells how TransEra's 'HTBasic' (originally High Tech BASIC, later licensed by HP and sold as HP BASIC) is probably the closest thing to what you're looking for. The trial download is free, but the full product is not free. In fact it's so expensive that the price isn't even mentioned on their website; they only send price quotes by email. More information here: http://www.htbasic.com/
Last time I played with HT BASIC (many years ago) it was very similar to HP's Rocky Mountain BASIC. I suspect that it still is.

There is also 'HP Instrument BASIC' you can download from hpmuseum.net it was designed to run under windows I just installed it in a Win-2000 virtual machine and it seems to work.

You can find the prices here.
Not really cheap, and I don't know if it is still available (the page is dated 2010).
I bought a secondhand HTBasic 7.1 several years ago.
RMB was the first HP language that impressed me at the time, and it was a source of inspiration for the HP71 JPCROM structured programming extensions.

    Introduction

    All the files are in PDFformat, and are quite big as I prefer to scanmanuals at printer resolution whenever possible.

    Mainframe Manuals

    HP 85 Owner's Manual and Programming Guide.Contains basic information on setting up and programming the HP 85. If the User's Guide is too big for you, you can try thePocket Guide. It also comes in a``lite' black-and-whiteversion for those of you on dial-up connections.
    The Introduction to the HP-86B includesequipment installation (and connection to HP-IB devices), plus an overviewof the HP-86B's features.

    Many thanks to Jim Battle for contributing this manual.

    The Introduction to the HP-87 includesequipment installation (and connection to HP-IB devices), plus an overviewof the HP-87's features.
    The HP-IB Systems Training with the HP-85as a controller is a collection of slides (presumably) used by HP for customer training. It contains sections on the use of the tapecartridge, programming in HP-85 Basic, HP-IB and advanced porogrammingincluding I/O, interrupts, buffering etc.

The third is theGETSAVE utility thatconverts between binary BASIC files and ASCII files.

    Application ROM Manuals

    The second most important ROM in the Series 80 computers is theMass Storage ROM that allows access to floppy and hard disk drivesover the HP-IB interface. In the low-end models of the family (HP-83/85)the Mass Storage ROM was optional, while in the HP-86/87, the ROM wasincluded in the standard configuration. Nevertheless, theHP-85 Mass Storage ROM Manualapplies equally to all the Series 80 computers.
    The HP-85 Advanced Programming ROMManual, describes the commands made available by the 00085-15005 and00087-15005 Advanced programming ROM.
    The HP-86/87 Plotter ROMManual, describes the commands made available by the 00087-15002Plotter ROM. This ROM allows an HP-86/87 to drive HP-GL plotters by extendingall the CRT graphics capabilities to external plotters. It also allowsCRT alpha and graphics displays to be copied dot by dot to a printer.
    The HP-85 Matrix ROMManual, describes the commands made available by the 00085-15004 and00087-15004 Matrix ROM.
    The Multiple Indexed Keyed Sequential Access Method (MIKSAM) ROMis a powerful software development tool for application programmers andserves as a core around which custom file management systems can be designed.The MIKSAM ROM Manual, describes the capabilitiesof this package and discusses a sample application.

    Peripheral Manuals

    The Speech Synthesis Module allows voice-quality output using a large built-in vocabulary consisting ofover 1,500 words, phrases and sounds.

    Many thanks to Mr. John Shadbolt for sending me photocopies of the manualso that I could scan it.

    This is the Operator's Manual for the HP9121D/S 3.5-inch floppy disc drives. These single-sided drivesare compatible with all Series 80 computers (HP-83/85A computers requirethe Mass Storage ROM).

    The Service Manual for these drives is available at ftp://bitsavers.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/pdf/hp/disc/09121-90030_3_Inch_Flexible_Disk_Drive_Service_Apr84.pdf

    This is the Users's Manual for the HP9133A/B, and 9135A/B HP-IB Mass Storage devices.
    Many thanks to Bob Hahm for lending me the manual so that I could scan it.

    The Service Manual for these drives is available at http://bitsavers.org/pdf/hp/disc/09134-90032-Aug-1983.pdf

    This is the Owner's Manual for the HP82905B printer. The difference between the HP82905B and the earlierA version is that the HP82905B can accommodate an HP-IL interface. Thus,this manual also contains a short section on how HP-IL controllers (e.g. the HP 41C)can control the HP82905B.
    This is the Owner's Manual for the HP2671 Thermal printer.
    This is the Installation Note of the82929A Programmable ROM drawer. Unlike the 82936A ROM drawer whichrequires proprietary ROMs, the 82929A allows the use of standardEPROMs for the storage of Application Pac ROM images.
    Many thanks to John Shadbolt for submitting an earlier version of this note.
    This is the InstructionSheet for the 82936A ROM drawer which allows the use of special(HP proprietary) ROMs to increase the capabilities of the Series80 computers. Up to six ROMs can be inserted into the 82936A ROMdrawer.
    This is the InstructionSheet for the HP 82907A 32K, HP 82908A 64K and HP 82909A 128KMemory Modules. These modules are compatible with the HP-86, HP-86B,HP-87, HP-87XM, and HP-85B (not the HP-85 or HP-85A models).Up to four modules can be installed into the computer;s plug-in ports.
    InstructionSheet for the HP-82912A and HP-82913A Video Monitors. These arehigh resolution monochrome displays with 9-inch (HP-82912A) or12-inch (HP-82913A) CRTs. These monitors are compatible with theHP-86 and HP-86B computers, the only models in the Series 80 lineup thatrequire an external monitor.

    Many thanks to Jim Battle for contributing this manual.

    Application Notes

    This Application Note describes howto copy CRT graphics from the HP-83/85 to the 82905B dot matrix printer.A binary program (GDUMP) is alsoavailable in the Programs Collection.
    Leibson on I/O is a series ofarticles by Steve Leibson on I/O. They were initially published in Keyboard magazine, a publication of the Desktop Computer Division of HP. In 1981, HP collected all the articles in this 40 page handbook.

    Steve Leibson was a key developer in the HP-9825 project and hasan excellent web site (www.hp9825.com)with lots of historical information about the project.

    The 8350A/85-1 ProgrammingNote is a guide to the remote operation of the HP-8350A SweepOscillator and appropriate HP-83500 Series Plug-in using the HP-85APersonal Computer.
    Adding I/O to the HP-85,Keyboard Magazine, Sep-Oct 1980, pages 10,11.

    Brochures and Promotional Material

    One of the earliest brochures forthe Series 80, this describes the HP-85 and associated peripherals.
    The Series 80 Personal Computer Software brochuredescribes the software packages available for the Series 80 computers.
    A two page flyer in Greek introducingthe HP-85.
    This brochure describesthe 9915A which is the embedded version of the HP-85.

    For more information on the 9915, please look at the HP-9915 Corner.

    This brochure describesthe Integral PC, the successor to the Series 80. The Integral PCis particularly notable because it contains UNIX in ROM. A BASICsystem (largely compatible with the Series 80 BASIC) was alsoavailable as an option. Most of the features of the Integral PCwere improvements over similar features available on the HP-85:Motorola 68000 processor running at 8MHz, versus the 85's customprocessor, floppy drive versus the tape drive, 80 column inkjetprinter versus the 32 character thermal printer, etc. Both machineswere mains powered luggables. The lunchbox shape and the built-inhandle of the Integral PC made it more compact and transportabledespite the fact that it was heavier than the HP-85 (11.5 Kg versus9.06 Kg). Unfortunately, users did not like the Integral PCand it turned out to be an evolutionary dead-end.
    There is also an issue of the HP Journal discussing the Integral PC.
    The Personal Computer Users Catalogdated 2/1983 describes accessories and consumables for the variouspersonal computers and calculators sold by HP.

    Many thanks to Bob Hahm for contributing this brochure.
