[net.micro.cpm] MODEM840 for CP/M-86 now available

Keith Petersen <W8SDZ@Simtel20.ARPA> (11/19/84)

Thanks to Charlie Strom <CSTROM@SIMTEL20> we now have MDM840 for
CP/M-86.  It is a 16 bit conversion of MDM740.

Here is a list of the files available:

Here's the note file:

		       MDM840

  Translation of MDM740.ASM for CPM86 and MPM86.

This translation follows the same principle of using overlays
to adapt MDM8xx to different hardware environments as was so
successfully done with MDM7xx.

The procedure to adapt MDM8xx to specific hardware has changed
somewhat due to the facts that DDT86 cannot be used to overlay
H86 (HEX) files and no SAVE command beeing available in CPM86.
See MDM840.NOT for details.

Required Files:	  MDM8xx.H86   (xx is Version Number)
			       The Main Program in Hex Form.

		  M8GP.A86     (The General Non-Specific
				Overlay.
			     or
				One of the available Overlays
				for your hardware.)

The Translation was MAINLY done by hand as XLT86 (DRs 8080->8086
translator) is virtualy useless with large files.  Various routines
had to be changed to work properly with CPM86 and MPM86
