- ; ED409.ASM ED409.ASM dated 1984 September
-
- ; This file is an overlay to EDFILE.COM which provides modifications.
- ; Since EDFILE is a particularly popular public domain program and
- ; since more fixes and modifications are sure to follow, this patch
- ; will be referred to by its date...4 for 1984 and 09 for September.
-
- ; This patch by Clint Lew
- ; South Bay Technical Support Group RCP/M (213) 970-9238
-
- ; This patch corrects two small bugs in the current version.
- ; The first bug limited the size of the file to which direct jumps
- ; could be made. In the original version, for files greater than
- ; about 8000H, the "dump relative address" or "A" command would not
- ; consistently jump directly to all addresses. (Actually the address
- ; jump limit was dependent upon the file size).
- ; The second bug was a minor problem in that a jump to an address
- ; which happened to be on a sector boundary would send you to the
- ; block before the desired block.

- ; First, edit this file to your preferences using any editor.
- ; Wordstar in non-document mode works very well for this.
- ;
- ; Second, assemble this file using Digital Research's CP/M
- ; assembler ASM.COM. For the file ED409.ASM, enter ASM ED409.
- ;
- ; Lastly, use DDT to overlay the results of this EDOVR program
- ; onto EDFILE.COM. The procedure for this overlay follows:
- ;
- ; A>DDT EDFILE.COM
- ; DDT VERS 2.2
- ; NEXT PC
- ; 2C00 0100 (size varies with version)
- ; -IED409.HEX (note the "I" command)
- ; -R ("R" loads in the .HEX file)
- ; NEXT PC
- ; 2C80 0000
- ; -G0 (return to CP/M)
- ; A>SAVE 44 EDFILE.COM (now have a modified .COM file)
