Does anyone know about a program for the IBMPC that can convert text files created under CPM to MS-DOS format? Thanks! -Andres (HUERTAS@USC-ECLC) -------

There is a commercial program called UNIFORM for the PC which allows you to read write and initialize disks on a PC to about 100 different CP/M formats. Basically it allows you to create, for example, a Kaypro disk drive on your PC and then access it just as if it were an IBM disk. There are other similar programs with which I am not so familiar - Media Master is the name of one, XenoDisk is another. For the Kaypro there is a public domain program called MFDISK (Multiple Format Disk) which allows a similar function from the other end, although it is not as powerful as UNIFORM when dealing with MSDOS formats. UNIFORM is available from: MicroSolutions Software Products Division 125 South Fourth St. Dekalb, Il. 60115 (815) 756-3421 Cost: $69.95

Andres, A company called MicroSolutions in De Kalb, Illinois has a program called UNIFORM that will do just that. Larry

My version of MS-DOS (2.05) has a program RDCPM that allows you to read and copy CPM formated disk files to an MS-DOS disk. My system is a DEC rainbow 100, but the program might exist for the IBM-PC also. ED KUSHALL

I don't know if they sell it separately. They are at: 1114 Industry Dr. Bellvue, Wa. as I recall. Hope this helps, John > -------
