GETAMAP	is a utility to print Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) map
requests.  This program is supplied by the Defense Mapping Agency to
print the NON-classified maps they supply to the public.  The program
has been placed in the public domain.  Thanks to David Kirschbaum for

	Actually, this is not a follow-up, just accessing the group
as I know how.


	First, three general questions, then about Nethack2.2 running.

	1. Can you add to the PATH in some manner other than
completely including the existing path plus the addition? (MSDOS 3.1)
Unless I am missing something, each set PATH command obliterates
the previous PATH setting. I want to append it.

	2. Is the CI C86 compiler Z100 oriented or is it something
I can use as well on a PC clone? ( I am considering getting CI C86
used, any offers?)

	3. EM39EXE.ARC at SIMTEL is supposed to include some
special exe files for the Z100 (according to it's own docs.) It does not.
	I currently haven't a C compiler to do this from the src
which does have this. Anybody have a running version (binaries) I
can work out a transfer with?



	Nethack2.2 running:

	I have Nethack22 running on my Z100.  This is running on a 768K, two 
360K floppy system, with MSDOS 3.1. 
	Do any other Z100 users have this running?	
	If not, I will submit it, the binaries
of nethack when ver2.3 works plus config and termcap files etc. (ZTERMCAP.TRM
does not work correctly for Nethack)
to INFO-HZ100, if somebody tells me how, or to SIMTEL. I hope to have MORIA as
well soon.

	About the graphics related to nethack.
It appears that the AS and AE (alternate chars. escape)
are not used in hack, nethack etc. I am assuming that this is the
reason I can't get other than ascii characters on the screen
regardless of the altchar.sys contents. Am I misunderstanding
something?
				Thanks,
