W8SDZ@SIMTEL20.ARPA (Keith Petersen) (11/17/85)
Seems like a race to see who's first, doesn't it? Yet another updated version of SD is now available from SIMTEL20 as: Filename Type Bytes CRC PD:<CPM.DIRUTL> SD110.LBR.1 BINARY 76160 6EABH Recent SD History: 11/15/85 This is a major update (skipped to v110) and incorporates v110 changes requested by several Sysops. Installation of this program was becoming a nightmare, even for experienced RCP/M operators. Many confusing and redundant equates have been eliminated. The installer no longer need be concerned about running BYE low or high, or where his BDOS page starts. The need to install computer dependent code has been eliminated. Previous versions could be assembled with combinations of equates that could result in assembler errors, or worse, crash the system. A new option ($O) has been added to dis- play ONLY system (.SYS) files. Simplicity and security were the results. - Wayne Masters & Irv Hoff Potpourri, (408) 378-7474 11/11/85 Made the fixes mentioned (by Ernest Hintz) in SD105.BUG. v107 Option equates comments edited to be logical and make it easier for first-time users to set up. Slight modification to header. Normal system equate settings are in lower case (as in BYE5) - makes it easier to spot them. - Tom Brady, Decibel RCP/M 11/09/85 Version 1.05 was released with the wrong HELP menu at the v106 label OPTMSG when ZCPR2 EQU YES. Also, changed the "More..." prompt to "[more]", keeping in line with the majority of programs currently using a page pause function. Returned the header to display as in SD102, which is much more informative to the general user, than the cryptic display which appeared in v105. Removed the duplicated historical notes from SD10x.INF (extra file length is not necessary, when an historical file already exists). - Tom Brady, Decibel RCP/M
