I am working to get a diskette of software from someone who has a Kaypro running UniForum. They're too far away for me to look over their shoulder, so I've been coordinating this over the phone and through the mail. I have a Cromemco System Three running CDOS on two 5.25" DSDD drives. The first diskette was written and formatted using some "other" CDOS DSDD format, listed as format number 72 in the UniForum menu. They have located a CDOS entry, but I'm not sure that they have the right one. My questions are: 1. What is format number 72? Might it be Cromix? 2. What is the format number for CDOS DSDD? I'm hoping that someone on the net has UniForum running, and can take a quick look at the menu to answer these questions. Thanks. This seems like a good time to ask a related question: how does one obtain a copy of UniForum? I noticed that Emerald Microware was offering the PC version, in the last issue of MicroCornucopia, but made no mention of the CP/M version. -Jim.

UniForm and UniForm-PC are products of:
Micro Solutions, Inc.
132 West Lincoln Hwy.
DeKalb IL 60115
815/756-3411
UniForm comes in a configurable form and is probably configurable to your
machine. I suspect that Emerald Microware still sells it, even though not
listed in there advertisement.
Without firing up my Kaypro, I can't help on the '72' thing, but there is a
listing in UniForm-PC for DSDD 48tpi Cromemco CDOS.
