Notes for BISHOW32
BISHOW32.AD3 contains terminal control codes for the ADM-31. Many other
terminals also use these same codes. Rename it to BISHOW.COM (or whatever).
BISHOW32.Z19 contains terminal control codes for the common Heath/Zenith
series of terminals. It will work on an ADM-31 but, when backing up, pages
will scroll into place without blanking the screen first (a source of mild
visual confusion at first, but the results are the same as soon as all the
lines are on the screen).
These 2k versions, as distributed, will read library member files, and
will also read squeezed files whether or not they are enclosed in libraries,
but it is possible to assemble a very short (1k) version that doesn't include
the code for squeezed or library files. Typing BISHOW (with no file name) will
show whether your version works on library files, on squeezed files, or both,
or neither.
Typing BISHOW UNKNOWNZ.LBR (no member name) will show the .LBR directory.
Then type BISHOW UNKNOWNZ MEMBER.FIL to read a member file from the library.
To move around in the file you're reading, use the Wordstar cursor key
pad, including ^S^D for horizontal scrolling. Press 1 or T to jump back to
the top of the file. Press Q to quit (leaving the screen intact) or ESC to
quit (clearing the screen). See BISHOW32.ME for a handy list of all the
command keys for both the short and the long versions.
You will need the original 48k .ASM file to assemble the long 4k version
that includes help (and other stuff that really isn't worth the extra 2k),
or to install unsupported terminals, or to change the command key mapping.
If you found this on SEAMUG's Greatest Hits, or if for some other reason you
don't have the .ASM file, it should probably be available from Seattle's
Downspout at 1-206-325-1325.
