Subject: SD110 -latest super directory program available

Seems like a race to see who's first, doesn't it?  Yet another updated
version of SD is now available from SIMTEL20 as:

       Filename                Type     Bytes   CRC

PD:<CPM.DIRUTL>
       SD110.LBR.1             BINARY   76160  6EABH

Recent SD History:

11/15/85  This is a major update (skipped to v110) and incorporates
  v110    changes requested by several Sysops.  Installation of this
          program was becoming a nightmare, even for experienced RCP/M
          operators.  Many confusing and redundant equates have been
          eliminated.  The installer no longer need be concerned about
          running BYE low or high, or where his BDOS page starts.  The
          need to install computer dependent code has been eliminated.
          Previous versions could be assembled with combinations of
          equates that could result in assembler errors, or worse,
          crash the system.  A new option ($O) has been added to dis-
          play ONLY system (.SYS) files.  Simplicity and security were
          the results.

11/11/85  Made the fixes mentioned (by Ernest Hintz) in SD105.BUG.
  v107    Option equates comments edited to be logical and make it
          easier for first-time users to set up.  Slight modification
          to header.  Normal system equate settings are in lower
          case (as in BYE5) - makes it easier to spot them.
                                      - Tom Brady, Decibel RCP/M
          
11/09/85  Version 1.05 was released with the wrong HELP menu at the
  v106    label OPTMSG when ZCPR2 EQU YES.  Also, changed the "More..."
          prompt to "[more]", keeping in line with the majority of
          programs currently using a page pause function.  Returned
          the header to display as in SD102, which is much more
          informative to the general user, than the cryptic display
          which appeared in v105.  Removed the duplicated historical
          notes from SD10x.INF (extra file length is not necessary,
          when an historical file already exists).
