Subject: ZCPR3's ZEX.COM

Dick,

       ZEX.COM is usable as distributed ONLY if you have the same
memory configuration I do -- particularly in terms of the location of
ZCPR3 command processor and the Environment Descriptor.  This is the
memory configuration which is on the distribution header files
(Z3BASE.LIB and Z3HDR.LIB).

       Yes, the documentation shows ZEX building a new ZEX.  If you
do not have ZEX, EX (by Ron Fowler) can be used instead.
Also, RELS.UTL is quite useful in creating ZEX, and that is in
MICRO:<CPM.SUBMIT> on SIMTEL20.

       I'll see if I can put together a LBR file for the Phase 2
distribution which contains a toolset for building ZEX without first
having ZEX.  In the meantime, if you are in a hurry, remember that ZEX
is just a command file processor, so the command sequence shown in ZEX
can be typed in manually - that is how I was thinking that users would
first bring it up, but I forgot to say that.

       I hope this clears up the matter.  The book will elaborate on
such items, of course, but that does not help for now.

       Rick
