Subject: another try for GSX-80 information

>I own a -self build- CP/M 3.0 computer, built after the CT-80 design of the

>768*560 pixels. The terminal is built after the GRIP design from the same

PS.  Has Digital Research ever published the GSX-80 manuals?
     (like we know of CP/M  - programmers guide
                            - system guide
          and above all --> - implementation guide)
