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.

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).
