Additional notes on some programmes on this disk.
All the following programs have been collected from various sources, However
they are all public domain software. They are all meant to work on CP/M
systems but some programs use hardware features that are not standard on
all computers therefore some of the following programs may not run on the
Microbee. When this is the case you will find also the assembler source file
so that, may be one of us can modify the program and get it running and pass
it on to the rest of the users.
SMODEMK.COM
SMODEMK.MAC
SMODEM.DOC
This is a modem program set up to run a Hayes Smart modem. Similar to MODEM7
this program also will dial the number for you from a phone directory.
Multiple phone directories are allowed and may co-exist on the same disk.
SMODEMK.MAC is the source file for the M80 assembler. SMODEM.DOC is the
users manual for SMODEMK.
PHONE.001 is the default directory and can be edited for your own numbers.
Before creating a new directory see SMODEM.DOC for important information on
directory format.
This modem program does not set the baud rate, bits/character, word length,
or parity. Run MODEMPAT.COM to initialize your serial port before entering
SMODEM.
MODEMPAT.ASM
MODEMPAT.COM
This is a menu driven program to set up your serial port almost any way you
want. Just enter:
MODEMPAT<carriage return>
and answer the questions.
YAMMB64.COM
This is the famous YAM modem program adapted for the Microbee. The manual is
in YAM.DOC . There is a help file for the program commands in YAMHELP.T and
a small documentation concerning the Microbee version in YAMMB64.DOC.
BYE.COM
Needed to run your YAM system remotely. Run BYE and then leave your system
turned on and connected to the modem and phone. When you call, BYE will ask
you for a password, the password is "ANDY KAY" all uppercase. And, since
this was set up for the KAYpro I guess that is only right. Once you have
answered with ANDY KAY, you will be logged into CP/M on your home system.
You will be able to run your home system just as though you were sitting at
the console.
Comment from the editor:I do not know if this runs on the Microbee.
Then just enter BYE to exit.
SIGNS
Creates large block letters on the printer out of the characters you enter.
You get seven characters and/or spaces per line. The program is self
prompting.
Output goes to your LST: device. FONT.DAT must be on the disk with SIGNS.
SET-CP80
This is a CP-80/Epson MX80 set-up program for any CP/M system. It will
allow you to set print modes for the MX80. It can be assembled with the
.ASM assembler.
EX14.*
An excellent replacement for both SUBMIT and XSUB. Many handy enhancements
and it keeps the .SUB file in RAM for faster execution.
The documentation is excellent. It is used on this disk to install ZCPR on
your computer.
FIND.*
This routine searches the disk for a string of uppercase characters.
(Sorry, all your characters have to be uppercase or you'll be ignored.)
Anyone with a few hours to kill might futz this one so it doesn't look down
its nose at lower case etc.
PASSWORD.*
This little routine allows you to protect files with passwords. If you do
not respond with the correct password the system warm boots and will not run
the program. A word of caution, don't forget your passwords!
To use simply type PASSWORD followed by a space and the name of the file you
wish to protect. The program will ask you for a password and exit when you
respond with one. From now on when you try to run that program you will be
asked for your password. For more information see the beginning of
PASSWORD.ASM.
DIF2
SSED
DIF/SSED.DOC
With these you can update someone elses copy of a program by simply creating
a file of the updates (using DIF2) and sending only the differences. He
would then incorporate the differences (using SSED2) into his file. Saves on
modem time.
MENU.COM
This program works on the Osborne but not on the Microbee it seems that the
program is only taking the first 4 letters of the program to run. If you can
fix this program to work on the Microbee we would appreciate if you could
pass it on to our public domain library.
