Subject: Re: HANDY, HANDY+ organizers

I hope I am not abusing this net to just inform myself. This note follows
a report of an attempt to recompile HANDY with CBASIC2.

1-Re PD2:<CPM.DATABASE>HANDYS (the source file). Its DOC says that the
author converted if from CBASIC2 to CB80. People who wish to compile with
CBASIC2 could perhaps ask the author for the original CBASIC2 code...

2-In the same directory, 00INDEX.TXT says that the contents of HANDYP10.LBR
is unknown: it's a hidden GEM ( a real GEM, not an Atari): it's HANDY extended
and written in dBase ][ language, with quite a bit of powerful additional
features. Incredibly enough, it isn't in PD1:<MSDOS.DATABASE> nor <.DBASE>.
But porting it to MSDOS, and shuttling the data file diskette between the
two systems, is very easy, and solved my problem.
