[comp.os.cpm] Missing MAC Assembler manual for C128.

H462BATMS@GALLUA.BITNET.UUCP (03/23/87)

Hello,

   I had received manual with two utility disks from Commodore Inc.
I read through the user's guide manual for my C128 CP/M but I cannot find
any assembler manual in any user manual. I looked for assembler manual at
book stores but I cannot find that. I have Programmer's reference manual.
It said that should see Suggested for Guides in this manual but I cannot find
it. Any helps????

   I will interest in ZCPR 3.0 too. I throught it looks like MS-DOS disk
structure. I will try on C128 later.

     Good luck on finding the manuals for MAC.  As long as you're looking,
see if you can find the manual set for RMAC, LINK, and LIB.  I'd like to
have those too.

     It's kind of ridiculous... we paid for legitimate copies of these
programs, but don't get the documentation necessary to make use of them.
DRI just shrugs their shoulders.

     WE DESERVE DOCUMENTATION!  Although why I expect DRI to change is beyond
me.

     Don't try to implement ZCPR3 on a 128... you'll be in for a *lot* of
heartache.  Maybe when 3.3 comes out, but not right now.  Find one of the
replacement OS, like CCP+ ( has anyone ever gotten that to work on a
banked CP/M+?
