Subject: dBase II/ZIP Initialization

I've changed my terminal, and now have a slight problem with the terminal
drivers in my dBase II and ZIP software. Both came with an installation
COM file, but the files are now irrevocably trashed. Sigh. Fortunately the
dUTIL and QuickCode install files are OK.

My problem is minimal; the screen clear function needs to be redefined.
Everything else is OK (thank goodness). Although I can hack around this
in dBase by outputing 25 blank lines (how crass), I'm stuck with background
garbage in ZIP.

My dBase II is Ver. 2.4 and I think the INSTALL.COM file was ver. 2.9, but
I'm not sure. ZIP version is unknown, but it is of the same vintage. It's
install file is called ZIPIN.COM.

Can anyone identify the appropriate patch point for these two packages, or
does anyone actually have the appropriate installation files?

Thanks. They're still usable without re-installation, but what a pain!
