Subject: CPM 3.0 (+) RCP/M info/help wanted
I am interested in putting up an RCP/M on an Osborne Executive which runs CP/M
3.0. I have been working with some people on getting BYE working, but, in
the all holy wisdom of OCC, which seems to be spread liberally on all their
products, it seems that the SIO chip is implemented in some off-the-wall way,
and BYE just won't work.
Now it seems to me that a much simpler program could be written to take the
place of BYE. Most of what it would have to do is manage the USR Password
modem (SMODEM 1200 act-alike). Since the port could be configured to be
AUXIN:/AUXOUT:, most of the IO is taken care of, and protection can be done
very nicely within CP/M 3.
Can anyone who has some working knowledge of the innards of CP/M 3 give me
some pointers as to writing such a program?
Jon
