Subject: Another ZCPR3 system up and running...

I have installed ZCPR3 on a Big Board system with little problem in about
4 hours of effort.  I was running ZCPR2 before.  The system is as Rick Conn
advertizes and runs better than I expected on a floppy disk system.  (Rick
uses a winnie for all his work).  Using a double density 8" disk drive
system (~670 Kbytes per disk) I can put all of the ZCPR3 utilities and system
segments on a disk with about 300 Kbytes left.  The system loads fast and runs
very fast in spite of the extra transient programs which are executed to
support
shells, aliases and IF constructs.
       One of the nicest features is the TCAP (like TERMCAP) capability.  On a
Televideo 950, almost all utilities are screen oriented with half intensity
enhancement.  Very Nice!
       I think Rick Conn has a real winner here.  The entire system is
user friendly and consistent.  Get a copy from SIGM or SIMTEL20.  You will
like it....
