Subject: info wanted on CP/M public domain
I was at the Trenton Computer Fair last weekend and
was very impressed by a talk one of the speakes gave
on public domain software for CP/M. I have a Heath
H100 which runs CP/M-85 and apparently there is a guy
in Pennsylvania that will supply Heath format 5.25"
soft sectored floppies for any programs in the New
York Amature Computer Club public domain library for
$6.00 each. This is a great deal, execpt that there
are 200 disks in the NYACC library.
Has anyone had experience with the public domain
software provided by NYACC (or any other club)?
Which programs are worthwhile getting? I have seen
several utilities, such as wash and dump which are
"musts", but there is tons of other stuff. I would
appreciate getting anyone's opinions on these programs.
I have a catalog, and will summarize any information
I get to the net.
Also, does anyone know what is the latest version of
MODEM7? The NYACC catalog lists a couple of dozen
different versions, ranging from 7.0 to 7.96 to 7.6.
MODEM7.6 appears to be the most recently dated (April,
1982), but I am not sure. Any help here would be
appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
