Subject: Microsoft CPM

Hi,
     Of late, I've been doing quite a bit of work on Microsoft's version
of CP/m for the Apple ][.  I've found that just about anything written for
Vers. 2.X CP/m will run on it.  However, I've also found that just about any- 
thing that is Device-Dependent (i.e. MODEM, DCHBYE57, etc.) usually needs heavy
modification to run on the Apple.  This is mainly because of the Apple's
use of Memory-Mapped I/O and Apple's specs for folks that OEM peripherals 
for the Apple ][.  I've just finished modifying  MODEM and DCHBYE57 to run
on the Apple ][ and anyone that would like a copy is welcome to one.
     I am somewhat reluctant to upload it to a machine here simply because
they are both fairly large programs and I'm not yet sure how much demand 
there is (or will be) for them here.  I will shortly be putting up a 'BBS
under CP/m on the Apple using DCHBYE57 and the RBBS s'ware that is in the
Public-Domain.  Anyone that would like further info on the above or copies of 
the Apple versions of the above should contact me so I can decide if there
is ample demand to warrant uploading them here.

                                               Ken McDowell
                                               BigMac@Mit-AI
