Hi out there! As there is no such thing as a "comp.sys.cpm"-newsgroup (at least not on our machine ;-( ), I'm posting this here: I own an SB180FX System (anybody reads BYTE?, Steve's build a nice little machine) which runs a CP/M 2.2 compatible system. While digging through the software supplied with the system, I found a couple of ".REL"-Files (apparently libraries). My question: does anybody out there know the format of these .REL-files? It seems they are somehow packed bitwise. Also, if somebody who also has a SB180FX (preferably with GT180) would like to contact me? (In Europe You're pretty much cut off from the information exchange over on the other side of the Atlantic River). Thanks Josef Moellers c/o Nixdorf Computer AG (Abt.

There are also a couple of public domain programs to read and dis-assemble the .REL format files. You might try brousing through the SIMTEL20 CP/M archives. The .rel files are produced by 8 bit Microsoft compilers, and some of the Digital Research}: wq

The author of the first response didn't leave his/her net address: How do I get the SIMTEL20 stuff? Josef

of m80,l80,lib80 are given in source form. It's also available from the CP/M rountable on GENIE.
