Yes, it was released on February 1, 1988 as:
Filename Type Bytes CRC
Directory PD2:<CPM.GENDOC>
UCPM10.ARK BINARY 74064 C16FH
It's a very extensive list, arranged so it can be easily printed.
I thought the file was announced to Info-Cpm. If not, I'm sorry.
It's well worth reading.
For those unable to access SIMTEL20 because of network restrictions,
please remember that MOST of the new files announced to Info-Cpm are
also available on my RCP/M Royal Oak (MI) which may be accessed at
300 bps (Bell 103a), 1200 bps (Bell 212a), 2400 bps (V.22 bis), or
9600 bps (HST). The telephone number is (313) 759-6569. They are
also available from the CP/M RoundTable on General Electric
Information Services' GEnie.
The directories on my RCP/M have been recently reorganized. The MAP
command will produce the following display:
RCP/M Royal Oak Wall Map
------------------------
A1: Utilities F1: Editors / WP / Text utilities
B1: More Utilities G1: ZCPR3
C1: Communications H1: High Level Languages
D1: Catalog/Printer/Docs I1: Misc.
E1: Database/Spreadsheets J1: RCP/M Utilities
There are ten logical drives on the system (still 64 Megabytes).
All files are in user 1. The system should be faster now since
the directories are smaller.
