Subject: ZCPR3 confusion: is it worth the trouble on a floppy system?
I'm confused. I have only a limited amount of time to get files
from SIMTEL20 (I'll be off the net i 3 months) and have yet to
figure out how to unsqueeze files onces they're FTP'd here.
ZCPR3 looks like a good software package to spend my time on
getting to my micro, but it appears to be way too large to
run usefully on my Z80: 2 ss/dd disks, 188Kb each. Has anyone
usefully and efficently used these programs with limited disk
space? I FTP'd the ZCPR newsletters and they only confused me
further since it looks like a hard disk is needed for the most
effective use of ZCPR. Should I spend my time trying to get
Small C running instead? Any opinions would be appreciated
