Michael,
I don't want to diminish your efforts, but Jon's make runs on vanilla
CP/M 2.2, which some (many? I don't know) of us are stuck with. I might
like to get going with 3.0, to use some of its advantages but my system
doesn't bankswitch, and I don't know where to even get the 3.0 manuals
(which I would like to have) much less the software.
