Subject: CP/M plus compatibility, etc.

I can only tell you that a friend is running an RCPM under CP/M plus
in bank-switched mode. He had no problem running the 2.2 softeare
without modification. I guess Gary was too busy elsewhere in DR to be
current with the development team.
An interesting aside on CP/M plus development that I heard from a
reliable source - CP/M Plus was developed in C on the DR VAX and
cross-assembled to run on the in-house ALTOS. I understand that their
were mucho bugs as a result that took months to iron out. I am curious
as to whether the development group would do it the same way again or
go back to native assembly language? Sorry, I could get no info on
which C was used; there has been a persisent rumor about that DR will
release a C of their own for the micro community, but all I have
gotten up to now are wry smiles and no comments!
