MC:CPM;CRCK ASM

                         CRCK.ASM version 4.2

    CRCK is a program to read any CP/M file and print a
    CYCLIC-REDUNDANCY-CHECK number based on the CCITT standard
    polynominal:

             X^16 + X^15 + X^13 + X^7 + X^4 + X^2 + X + 1
    
    Useful for checking accuracy of file transfers.  More accurate
    than a simple checksum.
    
    Optionally will write an output file to the default drive, listing
    the CRC's of all files checked in a single session.
    
    COMMANDS:   CRCK [drive:]<filename.filetype> [F]

MC:CPM;MLIST HEX

     MLIST.COM - V3.4 by Keith Petersen, W8SDZ (revised 9/21/80)

    This program lists any size ASCII file by name, reading up to 16k
    of the file into memory at one time, in order to minimize disk
    activity during printout.

    Allows listing of multiple files by using normal CP/M ambiguous
    file names (i.e., MLIST *.ASM).  Before each file is printed, the
    FILENAME.TYPE is displayed.

    Use CTL-S to pause, CTL-C to abort.
    Other characters are ignored.

    This program allows CP/M 1.4 users to have protected ASCII files
    on a remote system, provided that the CCP 'REN' (rename) and
    'TYPE' functions have been changed to some other characters and
    MLIST.COM has been renamed to TYPE.COM.  To protect a file, rename
    it so the last character of the file type is #.  Example -
    MYFILE.AS#

    CP/M 2.x users may use 'TAG.COM' to set the f1' attribute of a
    file, which will prevent this program from listing it.
