[comp.os.cpm] VFILER for CPM-86

MKATZ@umd2.umd.edu (Manasseh Katz) (12/19/86)

I have downloaded VFILER for CPM-86 - FASTVF86.LBR on SIGM vol 229.
The LBR includes a doc file, a source (A86) file and an executable.
The program runs OK, but not perfectly since my terminal has some codes
different from a NEC APC.  The doc and source give easy directions for
customizing it, but it didn't work.  I then tried just reassembling the
original A86 file, following the directions, to see if that would work -
it doesn't.  I get BDOS errors with strange files and impossible disks
when I try to run it.  Has anyone tried using this file (on anything
other than an APC) ?  I am using ASM86 ver 1.1, under MPM-86 ver 2.13,
if that means anything to anyone.  I am using a WYSE 100 terminal, though
that doesn't matter since I get errors even before i try to customize
the program.  If noone has any idea what's wrong, does anyone have a similar
type of filer program for CPM-86 ?
