Subject: Re: WordStar with ZCPR2

[]

  There are two other ways to fix this:

1)  WSUFIX5.ASM:  This is a patch to WS.COM and WSOVLY1.OVR that will have
    WordStar search a default user area for COM and OVR files.  Therefore,
    you need only one copy of the WS files (thereby saving you directory
    entries).

2)  SUPUSER.COM:  This program resides just below the BDOS and has a list
    of files and where (drive/user) they are to be found.  The program
    must be initialized for a particular set, and for many programs it
    can be integrated into the COM file (not WordStar, however).

For WordStar, I prefer to use WSUFIX5, since it merely changes the user
area, and does not defeat the drive searching feature of WordStar (look on
default, then on A: (or wherever)).  I have several copies of WS.COM in
my DU areas, each configured for a different application.  I use SUPUSER
for most other programs with overlays, etc.
