I bought a c128 a long time ago. The cp/m that came with it didn't support the user port and so modeming was out. Some time in Dec '85 a friend of mine in Miami gave me a beta version of a new cp/m that did support the user port, plus add key click and some other little things. I currently use IMP-C128, a terminal program by Irv Hoff. Keyboard response is still terribley s l o w and sssstttiiiccckkkeeeyyy. Have there been any new releases?

I don't know about new releases for IMP, I use MEX -- but, I don't believe IMP is the source of your problem. If you don't have it, you need to get a copy of of CONFIG.COM and CONFIG.HLP. This allows you to change certain parameters of CP/M like screen and character color, port baud rate, keyboard feel, keyboard repeat, and even the volume of the keyboard clicks. I have it in my PROFILE.SUB file to set up the screen the way I like it. You will also get faster response if you turn off the 40-column screen driver -- SCREEN40.COM. -- Bill Taggart {uunet | ihnp4}!wp3b01!wjt

What other utilities are in existence for cp/m on c128? Sound? 80-column graphics? ... Ofer Licht

(1) I have lost the information on how to get the additional disk
of "standard" CP/M utilities for the C128 (ED, the assemblers,
etc.). There was a card to mail in that came with my C128D, but
I've lost it. I got my machine a couple of years ago, and I *think*
I registered my copy of CP/M.
(2) Does anyone know where I could get (public domain or fairly
cheap):
* a decent CP/M text editor
* a Z-80 assembler (I understand the one that
comes with CP/M uses 8080 mnemonics--I like
my LDIR)
* a C compiler (I understand there's a good
PD C compiler that comes with source)
I read comp.sys.cbm fairly often, so you can reply either by posting
here or by email.
Thanks,
