        I've also completed and uploaded a program called DEVICE,
which allows the CP/M or CP/ZM user to reference (and rename) his
physical devices with mnemonics.  For instance, if  UL1:  of  the
LST:  device is a XEROX 1750, then you can name this device XEROX
and select it by the command:

                DEVICE LST: XEROX

        The files are:

                DEVICE C in AR36:CPM
                DEVICE COM in AR12:CPM

        Documentation extracted from the source program follows:

       DEVICE -- a program for assigning mnemonic names to the
CP/M physical devices and allowing these devices to be selected
by the assigned names

       Command Forms:

               DEV CON: USERNAME       <-- Select Device
                   LST: USERNAME
                   RDR: USERNAME
                   PUN: USERNAME

               DEV //                  <-- HELP

               DEV /DISPLAY            <-- Display USERNAMEs and
                                               current settings

               DEV /SET                <-- Define USERNAMEs and
                                               comments

       Concept and Examples:

               DEV CON: REMOTE         <-- Select Remote Console
               DEV LST: MODEM          <-- Select Modem Output
               DEV /D                  <-- Display UNs and Settings
                       CON: Mnemonic Devices --
                               TTY     CRT     MODEM   CRT/MODEM
                       LST: Mnemonic Devices --
                               TTY     CRT     REMOTE  MODEM
                       RDR: Mnemonic Devices --
                               TTY     CRT     CLOCK   MODEM
                       PUN: Mnemonic Devices --
                               TTY     CRT     CLOCK   MODEM

                       Current Settings --
                               CON: = CRT
                               LST: = MODEM
                               RDR: = CLOCK
                               PUN: = CLOCK
