Yes, it was released on February 1, 1988 as: Filename Type Bytes CRC Directory PD2:<CPM.GENDOC> UCPM10.ARK BINARY 74064 C16FH It's a very extensive list, arranged so it can be easily printed. I thought the file was announced to Info-Cpm. If not, I'm sorry. It's well worth reading. For those unable to access SIMTEL20 because of network restrictions, please remember that MOST of the new files announced to Info-Cpm are also available on my RCP/M Royal Oak (MI) which may be accessed at 300 bps (Bell 103a), 1200 bps (Bell 212a), 2400 bps (V.22 bis), or 9600 bps (HST). The telephone number is (313) 759-6569. They are also available from the CP/M RoundTable on General Electric Information Services' GEnie. The directories on my RCP/M have been recently reorganized. The MAP command will produce the following display: RCP/M Royal Oak Wall Map ------------------------ A1: Utilities F1: Editors / WP / Text utilities B1: More Utilities G1: ZCPR3 C1: Communications H1: High Level Languages D1: Catalog/Printer/Docs I1: Misc. E1: Database/Spreadsheets J1: RCP/M Utilities There are ten logical drives on the system (still 64 Megabytes). All files are in user 1. The system should be faster now since the directories are smaller. --Keith Petersen Arpa: W8SDZ@SIMTEL20.ARPA Uucp: {decwrl,harvard,lll-crg,ucbvax,uunet,uw-beaver}!simtel20.arpa!w8sdz GEnie: W8SDZ RCP/M Royal Oak: 313-759-6569 - 300, 1200, 2400 (V.22bis) or 9600 (USR HST)
