Subject: Mainframe CP/M Utilities

For those of you who may not be aware, other than various varieties of
MODEM, we have several other utilities available for the CP/M hacker
for use on certain mainframes:

Ian Mackey's CRC - the ITS and TOPS-20 equivalent of Keith Petersen's
CRCK.  Contact GREN@MC for availability of the sources, written in
MIDAS.

Gail Zacharias' COMIFY and HEXIFY, which convert HEX files to COM
files, and vice-versa.  Contact GZ@MC.  Sources are also in MIDAS as I
recall - for ITS...

As the space availability on MC:CPM; dwindles, and as Bill Westfield
points out, utilities such as mainframe versions of SQ, USQ, and TSQ
would certainly be welcome additions to the mainframe world in their
own right.  And UNIX machines do not hold a monopoly on C compilers...
