Hi people, I have an apple //e and whenever a CP/M - program is making a warmstart after its execution my screen will be cleared. But when this program for example displayed a message or something else I can't read it anymore. So is there anybody who can tell me (has a patch for CP/M (Vers. 2.2 56K or/and Vers. 2.3 60) how one can avoid this behaviour of the CP/M - System? In hope for a response Ralf

I have used 60K Microsoft CP/M 2.23 on an oldstyle SoftCard in both a ][+ and a //e, and 64K PCPI CP/M 2.2 on an Applicard, and I don't get this screen clearing that you describe. Certain programs from certain vendors may do it, but the following programs I've used don't, at least on my system: WordStar DataStar ReportStar MicroCalc Strunk & White Turbo Pascal Microsoft F80/M80/L80 All the standard CP/M tools Sorry I can't be more informative in a positive way, but I hope this will help point you in the right direction. Good luck in finding an answer.
