Subject: Re: Avoid clearing the screen after warmstart

Ralf, I don't think this is a CP/M problem.  I have used 60K Microsoft CP/M
2.23 on an oldstyle SoftCard in both a ][+ and a //e, and 64K PCPI CP/M 2.2 on
an Applicard, and I don't get this screen clearing that you describe.  Certain
programs from certain vendors may do it, but the following programs I've used 
don't, at least on my system:

       WordStar
       DataStar
       ReportStar
       MicroCalc
       Strunk & White
       Turbo Pascal
       Microsoft F80/M80/L80
       All the standard CP/M tools

Sorry I can't be more informative in a positive way, but I hope this will help
point you in the right direction.  Good luck in finding an answer.
