Yes, yes, I know what you're saying - skip CP/M 3.0 and go to ZCPR3!!
BUT...
I can't modify the BIOS/BDOS without knowing what to make of what's there
now, so I'm sending out the call:
>>>> I NEED THE CP/M 3.0 PROGRAMMER'S GUIDE <<<<
Since DR no longer supports it, I have no qualms about asking for photocopies
and other questionable sources. If you have it, I want a copy!!
I'll even RENT yours so I can make my own copy!!!
(... CP/M 3.0 is three point oh times more complex than CP/M 2.2)

If you want to modify the BIOS, you need the "CP/M Plus System Guide" along with a bunch of programs like "gencpm.com" and some .SPR files. I have my "build" automated using "make", and it simplifies thing a good bit, but otherwise.... CP/M 3.0 in my case supports bankswitching and (obviously) timestamps. It is substantially better than 2.2 although things here and there make you scratch your head. Anybody have a copy of the banked BDOS source (commented?) ? :-) -- Mike Kersenbrock Tektronix Software Development Products Aloha, Oregon
