NSWP version 2.00 allows changeing any of the F1,2,3, or 4 bits.
Among other things...
(NSWP [NEWSWEEP] is a file maintenance utility like SWEEP, DISK, VFILER,
CLEANUP, etc. It is the best one I've seen by far - version 2.00 even
has a built in squeezer/unsqueezer! And all this for $0.00 and ~11k!!
It should show up on simtel20 soon ...)
Setting any of these bits means nothing to cp/m 2.2 by definition -
they are left for the user to define. f5,6,7 and 8 are reserved by DR
for purposes unknown by me. I know not what would happen if they are set.
