I am trying to help a friend upgrade his Apple from running with a softcard to a Franklin Z-80 card ( same as PCPI Applicard or Starcard). Everything seems to work ok except for MBASIC. MBASIC runs , but some of the screen formatting isn't correct. In particular the home and clear statements seem to be fouled up. We have tried various combinations of the "hardware" and "software" configurations under CONFIGSV with no luck. I assumed that MBASIC was sending screen control equivalent to a SOROC, and that the terminal would be an "80 column card", a VIDEX compatible. Can anyone tell me how to correct this situation by modifying "sftvideo" or MBASIC itself?

The MBASIC that came with the Softcard is a special "Apple version" that is specific for the Softcard and will not work on the Applicard. You'll need the "CP/M-80 version". --Irwin Hom {ihnp4, sdcsvax!bang}!crash!ihom bang!crash!ihom@nosc bang!crash!ihom@ucsd
