- **********
-
- Version 4.08 and 4.09 of Kermit-80 are developments of the previous release
- 4.05, changed to add more features and also make the incorporation of new
- systems easier. Much of the system-dependent code is as it was in 4.05, but
- the reformatting and conversion has been done at Loughborough University, from
- where the work was co-ordinated. The names of the files for version 4.08 and
- 4.09 now follow a fixed convention. They all have the form
-
- CPaxxx.bbb
-
- In these names:
-
- "a" is one of
-
- A for general information
- K for documentation and beware files
- S for system independent files
- X for system-dependent source files
- V for system-dependent hex files
-
- "xxx" is used to identify unique files used
-
- "bbb" is the file extention, usually one of:
-
- ASM for source files
- HEX for pre-assembled modules or completeprograms (eg
- LASM.HEX is the assembler)
- HLP for help files
- BWR for beware files
- ANN for notes
- TXT for pure text files
- DOC as for TXT
- MSS SCRIBE sources files (for document files.)
-
- CPKFET.* is a bootstrapping procedure that can be used if you have no other
- way to download the new files.
-
- Version 4.08 must be assembled and linked with LASM and MLOAD respectively,
- while V4.09 may use the M80 assembler as well. (I have **NO IDEA** if the
- MAC80 assembler will work or not!).
-
- It is also possible to assemble the source files on an IBM PC or clone using
- the Z80MU CP/M V2.2 and Z80 emulator, itself running the LASM or M80 assembler.
- (Using Z80MU is very useful if your target systems does not have enough disk
- space for all the source files.)
-
- Full details of building this version can be found in CPKERM.MSG. You will
- find LASM and MLOAD in the Lancaster filestore as [.CP4]LASM.HEX and
- [.CP4]MLOAD.HEX respectively.
-
- The Z80MU emulator can also be collected from Lancaster University's Micro
- Software Distribution Services. The M80 assembler is a Microsoft product, and
- you have to pay good money for it.
-
- Currently, the code for a number of systems has been upgraded from version
- 4.05. The particular system is indicated in filenames by the "xxx" part: codes
- currently in use are:
-
- APP Apple II with Z80 card
- - with Micromodem in slot 2
- - with 6551 and 6850 UARTs
- - with CP Multifunction card
-
- BBI Kaypro, Bigboard, and Xerox 820 systems
-
- CIF Cifer 1886 using the VL: or AL ports as TTY:Line. (Use &set
- to set ttyi: and ttyo: to the VL: or AL:port) Choice of
- CP/M V2.2 or 3.0 ("PLUS")
-
- HEA Heath systms (Heath 8 with quad IO interface board)
- Telcon ZORBA
-
- PCW Amstrad PCW 8256 and 8152 as well as CP/M-plus on CPC 6128
-
- NOR Northstar Advantage
- Northstar Horizon (Several: labels in CPXTYP are:
- BASICNS
- NORTHS
- HORIZON
- Comart Communicator. This is included as it is somewhat
- similar to the Northstar Horizon.
-
- TOR Superbrain (Main and Aux port versions.. assumes MicroMods
- add-ons)
- Torch systems (runs ok on Unicorn-5 under CP/N)
- Ithaca Intersystems series machines using the VIO card. (PCI
- 2651 USARTS)
- NCR DecisionMate V systems
-
- as well as another half dozen single system only family files. The total list
- of systems supported so far is:
-
