ZSUS Subscription Disks
=============================
Z-SUS Disk, Vol 2 #01 (11/27/90).................................(263k) $12.00
Contains the following update libraries:
CPSET vs 1.3 - CPSET allows interactive setting and display of the
(16k) terminal and printer parameters in the Z-System environ-
ment. Version 1.3 has a configurable "quiet" option
which can also be toggled from the command line.
ECHO vs 1.3 - ECHO echoes a text string to console or printer and is
(17k) compatible with Carson Wilson's Z34RCP, so your aliases
will work properly when your RCP has been unloaded. Vs.
1.3 corrects serious bug in 1.2 and adds %D to send DEL
character. Modified RCPECHO included to do the same
thing. Both type-3 and type-4 versions included.
Configurable with ZCNFG.
ERASE vs 5.6 - ERASE erases a list of files from one or more direc-
(26k) tories. Several options for prompting before erasing,
erasing of system files, and erasing read-only files.
Version 5.6 has command line quiet option, displays
target DU, detects invalid directory spec, fixes minor
bug in v5.5, and is configurable with ZCNFG.
RENAME vs 3.7 - RENAME renames files from the command line or interact-
(34k) ively, using ambiguous filenames and CP/M-style or
MS-DOS-style syntax. Options allow prompting before
each file is renamed, renaming of system files, and
erasure of existing files without prompting. Version
3.6 renames R/W files about twice as fast and no longer
erases existing R/O files without asking unless R option
is used. Vs 3.7 fixes an obscure bug affecting Control
mode.
SALIAS vs 1.5 - Full Screen Alias Editor. Creates or edits ZCPR3 alias
(33k) programs. Vs 1.5 is distributed in M-REL format so that
it can be easily linked with new alias modules and
system library versions. Installs with SAINST.COM.
SCAN vs 2.3A - SCAN is a 6k Z80 buffered bi-directional video-oriented
(41k) text file display utility using the basic WordStar
command set to view non-compressed text and library
member files of any size under ZCPR3 or CP/M. Has a
very fast string find routine, can read in new files and
send the text being viewed to a file or printer. Set/
find place markers 0-9. Vs. 2.3a has two bug fixes.
UNJUST vs 1.2 - Tried to edit a document with WordStar that is justified
(22k) with ASCII spaces? UNJUST replaces multiple white-space
character strings in text files with a single space,
(two spaces after periods), removing all soft spaces and
tab characters, and all white-space at the beginning of
lines. Preserves create date stamps under ZSDOS. Vs.
1.2 also removes trailing spaces, works much faster,
and corrects some bugs. For ZCPR3 only.
WHEEL vs 3.3 - WHEEL sets, resets, and displays the ZCPR3 Wheel Byte.
(21k) Vs. 3.3 adds ON and OFF as synonyms for SET and RESET,
and a command line quiet option. Several configurable
options can be set using ZCNFG, including password.
Type-3 and type-4 versions included.
and additional files Z3HELP32.LBR and ZFILEB32.LZT.
3. Z-SUS Disk, Vol 2 #02 (12/06/90)..............................(263k) $12.00
Contains the following update libraries:
DETABZ vs 1.4 - DETAB-Z replaces ASCII tabs in text files with the
(20k) correct number of spaces. No other characters are
affected: control characters are not removed, high-bits
are not reset. Under ZSDOS create file stamps are
preserved. Version 1.4 is much faster, optimizes some
of the code, and corrects a couple of bugs from previous
versions. For ZCPR3 only.
HELPC vs 1.0 - HELPC is a replacement for the standard Z-System HELP
(22k) utility. It handles crunched as well as normal,
uncompressed help files and is particularly well suited
for use on remote systems since the screen print options
are disabled when the wheel byte is turned off. HELPC
can be customized using ZCNFG and the included configur-
ation overlay.
PRETTY vs 3.0 - PRETTY is a Z-System utility to standardize the case of
(30k) opcodes and labels in Z80 and 8080 source code, based on
PRETTY 2.3 by Carroll Bryan. Preserves create date
stamps under ZSDOS. Configurable with ZCNFG.
PRTASM vs 2.0 - PRTASM is a ZCPR3 utility for printing source code and
(32k) other listings. It accepts a list of files to print.
The filename, page number, and file date and time are
printed in the upper right corner of each page. Config-
ured for Epson printers, but can be easily reconfigured.
Version 2.0 loads your printer buffer faster and can be
configured with ZCNFG.
UNJUST vs 1.3 - Tried to edit a document with WordStar that is justified
(22k) with ASCII spaces? UNJUST replaces multiple white-space
character strings in text files with a single space,
(two spaces after periods), removing all soft spaces and
tab characters, and all white space at the beginning and
end of lines. Preserves create date stamps under ZSDOS.
Version 1.3 corrects an occasional bug in renaming the
output file. ZCPR3 only.
ZDB vs 1.0 - ZDB (Z-Database) is a small (7K), simple, but very fast,
(37k) name and address file with label and envelope printing
output, sorting by last and first name or by zipcode,
and fast search. Z-System dependent, it uses some of
the graphics capabilities of VLIB4. Can make use of a
clock for automatic dating of entries. WordStar-style
editing keys for data entry and updating. New output
options for labels. Written in Z80 assembler and
developed with ZMAC and ZML, using the V4LIBS. Should
be compatible with almost any Z80 system running
Z-System.
ZP vs 1.1 - ZCPR33+/Z3PLUS 8k screen-oriented file/disk/memory
record patcher using the ZPATCH command set. Requires a
VLIB4D+ Z3TCAP. Has a one-record cache that can be
exchanged with file, disk, or memory records. Integral
HP RPN programmer's integer calculator may be called up
at any time for calculations in hex, decimal, binary or
character modes. Includes type 3 (8000h) and type 4
versions that execute only under ZCPR34+.

ARRAYS vs 1.0 - ARRAYS is a library of subroutines useful for creating
(55k) and maintaining byte and bit oriented arrays in assembly
language programs. Originally written to implement a
disk-user map for control of disk search programs. Full
source code, documentation and Microsoft REL and SLR
formats are included.
AT vs 0.5c - AT is a Z-System Command Scheduler. It schedules
(54k) commands (programs) for automatic execution at a
specified future date/time or repeated frequency.
Implemented as a standard RSX plus a loader which
contains the database of commands to be scheduled.
Requires: Z-System (NZ-COM, Z3PLUS, or ZCPR3.x) with
extended external environment, real-time clock, and
DateStamper, ZSDOS/ZDDOS, or CP/M Plus.
BITMATH vs 1.0 - BITMATH is a collection of routines for manipulating
(8k) selected bits in a byte which are not directly performed
by opcodes in the Z80/Z180 instruction set. Includes
reversing the order of bytes, logarithm, exponential,
and mask generation functions useful for bit-mapping and
interpretation of Disk Parameter Blocks or allocation
vectors in a BIOS. Help file documentation included.
ERAZ vs 1.5 - ERAZ is a fast, general-purpose Z80 file erasing utility
(24k) with flexible command line option control over many
aspects of the erasing process. Accepts multiple
dir:filenames. Can use a filename mask to exclude
selected files from erasing. ZCPR3 compatibility in a
ZCPR3 environment. Great with RAM disks! Companion to
ACOPY, DD, RENAMZ, and UNERAZ. Vs 1.5 conains changes
to work with latest ACOPY, fixes ZRDOS PUBLIC routine,
and adds ZCNFG configuration.
MEX+2Z vs 1.4 - This MEX-to-ZCPR33+ chaining program gives the MEX
(9k) command "CPM" a shell capability like that in the 16-bit
version's SHELL command. Vs 1.4 now supports "/" as an
exit command.
MYLOAD vs 1.0 - MYLOAD is an Intel HEX file loader/overlayer. It
(19k) functions like the old CP/M LOAD.COM and MLOAD, but will
operate in environments where MLOAD falls apart, such as
larger DOSes and CCPs. It relies heavily on Version 4
of the Z-System Libraries. Vs 1.0a corrects Z-System
initialization flow.
TCJ-NEWS vs n/a - News release concerning change in editorship and future
(4k) of The Computer Journal.
XFOR vs 1.2 - XFOR is a ZCPR3 Extended FOR utility for searching and
displaying "----" delimited file catalogs. Command line
source file specification. Internally configured

5. Z-SUS Disk, Vol 2 #04 (01/23/90)..............................(278k) $12.00
Contains the following update libraries:
ACOPY vs 3.2 - ACOPY is a fast CP/M and ZCPR3 Z80 file copy utility.
(46k) Optional caching of up to 256 source and 256 destination
disk directory entries in RAM for extra fast copying.
Flexible command line option and configuration control
over many aspects of the copy process. You can now
specify up to 3 excluded filenames. Has two new options
plus support for wildcard user numbers for hard disk
backups. Companion to DD, RENAMZ, ERAZ and UNERAZ.
FSPLIT vs 1.0 - FSPLIT splits a large file into several smaller ones by
(27k) record count, by line count, or at a marker character
within the file. Options for splitting text files only
at the end of a line or object (binary) files on record
boundaries. Under ZDDOS and ZSDOS create date stamps
are transferred to the new files.
PDMSTK vs 1.0 - PDMSTK.COM is a small shell for ZCPR3.x systems to
(14k) demonstrate a method of using Pull-Down Menus using the
ZCPR3.x Shell Stack in which the return invocation to
the shell is placed on the stack. A follow-on to
PDMSHELL, which used the Multiple Command Line, PDMSTK
overcomes the weakness of causing program re-execution,
in which a "vanilla" version of WordStar 4 would never
exit. PDMSTK requires a Termcap corresponding to the
definitions in VLIB4D and later versions.
PRTRLE vs 2.0 - PRTRLE is a ZCPR3 utility that prints high resolution
(28k) Run Length Encoded (RLE) graphics files, produced by
Macs, Commodores, and PC's, on Epson-compatible graphics
printers. Accepts a list of files. It can be used to
put art or pictures in your text files or documents.
ZCNFG configuration.
RENAMZ vs 1.8 - RENAMZ is a fast CP/M and ZCPR3 Z80 file renaming
(31k) utility. Vs 1.8 adds optional caching of up to 256 disk
directory entries in RAM for extra fast renaming.
Flexible command line option and configuration control
over many aspects of the renaming process. Can move
files between user areas. Great with RAM disks!
Companion to ACOPY, DD, ERAZ and UNERAZ.
XTAIL vs 1.1 - XTAIL displays the command tail as parsed by the command
(12k) processor. Both the default and alternate (secondary)
file control blocks are displayed as a hexadecimal dump
and in ASCII, as is the complete tail in the default DMA
buffer. This program can be useful for anyone exploring
programming in the ZCPR3 environment.
ZDB vs 1.1 - ZDB (ZCPR3 DataBase) is a small (8K), very fast and easy
(26k) to use name and address database manager that can print
envelopes and labels. It can also print a directory of
the entire database and write an ASCII CDF name and
address file for use with MailMerge. The database can
be indexed by name or by zipcode, and fast name searches
can be done. Entries are automatically dated if you
have a ZSDOS clock. Requires a VLIB4D+ graphics Z3TCAP.
ZDBUTIL vs 1.5 - ZDBUTIL converts ZDB databases from the old to the new
(24k) format, and displays, prints and outputs ascii text
given a new format ZDB database. After converting to
the new format, sort the database to delete a dummy
deleted record created during the conversion process.
Version 1.5 detects a command tail and has a smarter
user interface.
and additional files Z3HELP35.LBR and ZFILEB35.LZT.
6. Z-SUS Disk, Vol 2 #05 (02/09/91)..............................(278k) $12.00
Contains the following update libraries:
CALCIOP vs 1.0 - CALCIOP is an IOP version of the classic Eric Meyer HP
(9k) calculator in ZRL format for JetLdr or the NZCOM loader.
It consists mostly of Carson Wilson's CALCRCP grafted to
Joe Wright's NZIOP skeleton from NZ-SRC.LBR. Unlike
CALCRCP, CALCIOP has no "CALC" command. It is unloaded
by loading another IOP.
CONCAT vs 1.1 - CONCAT concatenates two or more source files into a new
(41k) file, similar to PIP, or appends them to an existing
file. Accepts both named directory (DIR) and drive/user
(DU) specifications, which allows elaborate operations
with files pulled from various drives and user areas.
Checks for adequate disk space before doing anything.
Version 1.1 adds file date stamping support, new options
and ZCNFG configuration. For ZCPR3 only.
DATEFN vs 1.0 - DATEFN (Dated Filename) is a simple ZCPR3/ZSDOS utility
(19k) that reads the ZSDOS clock and creates or optionally
deletes an empty label file with the current date as the
filename. The filename date format may be configured
with ZCNFG as ?ddMMMyy.typ or mm/dd/yy.typ. Useful in
backup aliases to create and remove label filenames
automatically indicating the date of last disk backup.
ERAZ vs 1.5A - ERAZ is a fast CP/M and ZCPR3 Z80 file erasing utility
(27k) with flexible command line option and configuration
control over many aspects of the erasing process.
Accepts multiple dir:filenames. Can use filename mask
to exclude selected files from erasing. Great with RAM
disks! Companion to ACOPY, DD, RENAMZ, and UNERAZ. Vs
1.5a fixes problem with erasing more than 256 files.
FF vs 2.4 - FF (Find File) finds all files matching a list of file
(73k) specs on all drives, a specific drive, or a list of
drives. Version 2.4 adds several new options, and makes
all options configurable with ZCNFG. Uses SYSLIB4C
routines, including the sort routines to make FF
noticeably faster. Source code revised for brevity,
clarity, and code optimization. Command line syntax
relaxed. Still compatible with Z3PLUS and DosDisk.
SAVZVMEM vs 1.0 - SAVZVMEM preserves the memory image of a VDE/VDM/ZDE
(17k) text file after an unexpected hangup which requires a
system reset. Written in Turbo Pascal.
ZDB vs 1.1B - ZDB (ZCPR3 DataBase) is a small (8K), very fast and easy
(30k) to use name and address database manager that can print
envelopes and labels. It can also print a directory of
the entire database and write an ASCII CDF name and
address file for use with MailMerge. The database can
be indexed by name or by zipcode, and fast name searches
can be done. Entries are automatically dated if you
have a ZSDOS clock. Requires a VLIB4D+ graphics Z3TCAP.
and additional files Z3HELP36.LBR and ZFILEB36.LZT.
7. Z-SUS Disk, Vol 2 #06 (02/24/91)..............................(286k) $12.00
Contains the following update libraries:
ASK vs 2.2 - ASK is a Z-System version of an MS-DOS utility that
(19k) allows user input in batch files. For use under ZCPR3.x
with ZEX and ALIAS scripts. Requires message buffers.
Written in BDS-C/Z v2.0 using routines from Cameron
Cotrill's CFORZ02 library, along with routines written
to access the user registers.
BU vs 1.7 - BU17 is a revision of Kim Levitt's classic file oriented
(50k) hard disk backup program for CP/M Plus or Z3PLUS.
Version 1.7 requires a Z80 processor, but otherwise
still works with all CP/M revisions since 2.2. Perform-
ance improved, several bugs fixed, clock read under CP/M
Plus/DateStamper/ZSDOS; datestamping under DateStamper/
ZSDOS only.
DA vs 3.0 - DA is a ZCPR3 utility for manipulating and displaying
(20k) file directory attributes. It is designed to complement
D.COM, with a lower-case display that is more readable
to most people. The display is three columns, alphabet-
tized and paged. This is a major reworking of Eric
Meyer's DA 2.2. DA30.COM is designed for dim video
highlighting, DA30REV.COM for reverse.
DSKMAP vs 1.0 - DSKMAP is a ZCPR3 update of BITMAP 2.2 (12/80) that
(19k) displays disk space statistics and paged allocation bit-
map for the specified disk. Can take screen width and
length of display pages from the ZCPR3 environment or
from patched values. Not for use with Z3PLUS.
HELPC vs 1.2 - HELPC is a replacement for the standard Z-System HELP
(23k) utility. It handles crunched as well as normal, uncom-
pressed help files and is particularly well suited for
use on remote systems since the screen print options are
disabled when the wheel byte is turned off. HELPC can
be customized using ZCNFG and the included configuration
overlay. Version 1.1 properly handles files created in
Wordstar Document Mode. Version 1.2 adds printer-ready
test (can be turned off with ZCNFG).
LBRHLP vs 1.8 - LBRHLP is a set of two programs for displaying help
(45k) files from within LBR's. LHC.COM is for crunched files
and LHQ.COM is for squeezed files. Both programs can
also handle uncompressed files in libraries. Version
1.7 handles Wordstar Document Mode files, has wheel
control of print options and can be configured with
ZCNFG. Version 1.8 adds printer-ready test (can be
turned off with ZCNFG).
LDIR-B vs 1.8 - LDIR-B displays library directories, showing file dates
(29k) and sizes. V1.7 adds a summary line giving the total
member files found, sets the ZCPR3 error flag if no
member files are found, resets the high bit on crunched
file names, and a few other changes. V1.8 corrects a
minor bug.
ZDB vs 1.2 - ZDB (ZCPR3 DataBase) is a small (8K), very fast and easy
(30k) to use name and address database manager that can print
envelopes and labels. It can also print a directory of
the entire database and write an ASCII CDF name and
address file for use with MailMerge. The database can
be indexed by name or by zipcode, and fast name searches
can be done. Entries are automatically dated if you
have a ZSDOS clock. Requires a VLIB4D+ graphics Z3TCAP.
and additional files Z3HELP37.LBR and ZFILEB37.LZT
8. Z-SUS Disk, Vol 2 #07 (04/01/91)..............................(277k) $12.00
Contains the following update libraries:
CONCAT vs 1.3 - CONCAT concatenates two or more source files into a new
(43k) file, similar to PIP, or appends them to an existing
file. Accepts both named directory (DIR) and drive/user
(DU) specifications, which allows elaborate operations
with files pulled from various drives and user areas.
Checks for adequate disk space before doing anything.
Version 1.3 adds command line entry of divider string
and fixes a couple of bugs. For ZCPR3 only.
FILESZ vs 1.5 - FILESZ shows file size in records, pages, and kilobytes.
(17k) It accepts an ambiguous file specification, and is use-
ful for patching & saving, satisfying your curiosity, or
watching your COM file grow as you add enhancements.
For ZCPR3 or vanilla CP/M. v1.4 has new options,
enhancements, and ZCNFG configuration. Still 1K.
HP vs 1.4 - HP is a ZCPR3 programmer's integer RPN calculator which
(85k) operates in Hex, Decimal, Binary and Character modes.
It comes in five versions: a Type 3, the new type 4, a
*full-screen VLIB4D+ graphics* version, a memory
resident IOP version and a Plu*Perfect-standard RSX
version. The IOP and RSX versions can be called from
within a utility such as WS, ZDE or ZPATCH for use while
editing or patching files and can copy the numerical
calculator display to the file being edited by the host
utility.
SCOPY vs 1.0 - SCOPY is a screen-oriented file copier for ZCPR3 and
(21k) Z3PLUS systems with Extended TCAP. Supports file selec-
tion and copy by datestamp. Configurable with ZCNFG.
TESTERR vs 1.3 - This version of the old Jay Sage program error flag
(7k) tool adds support for JetFind v1.22 (Plu*Perfect
Systems) -- the program error flag is set if JetFind has
run with no "hits." Type 3 safety header has also been
added.
UMAP vs 1.4 - UMAP is a ZCPR3 utility which can display a brief map of
(21k) a disk, showing which user areas have files and how many
directory entries those files use. In addition, it can
display a brief summary of the total number of direc-
tory entries used, the number of entries still free and
the amount of disk space free. Vs. 1.4 can display a
list of empty directories.
XOX vs 1.0 - XOX is a text file viewer with additional features for
(27k) listing blocks, writing blocks to disk, and merging
files. The list of files to be viewed is generated from
the command line and may be selected and sorted by file
datestamp. Uses new extended TCAP. Earlier versions
(back to 1983) were released under the name VIEW. This
major upgrade begins under a new name.
and additional files Z3HELP38.LBR and ZFILEB38.LZT.
9. Z-SUS Disk, Vol 2 #08 (05/13/91)..............................(281k) $12.00
Contains the following update libraries:
ALIAS vs 1.7 - The ALIAS facility is the script expansion utility of
(52k) ZCPR3. Version 1.6 adds the '$Rn' construct which
expands the decimal value in Register n (where n varies
from 0..31). One good use of the new variable is to
report the progress of alias loops or 'recursions'.
Assuming the loop is controlled by the contents of
Register 3, one can report it with 'ECHO $R3'. Version
1.7 fixes a bug in the ALIAS0 module.
CMD vs 1.4 - CMD is used to define and run a command line. It either
(10k) accepts a command line or prompts the user for input.
Version 1.4 introduces a major change in prompted opera-
tion -- CMD now reinvokes itself after each command
until an empty command line (a RETURN alone) or a
Control-C is entered. Control-C also exits the current
shell (if any) as in Version 1.3. In this way, CMD can
act like an MS-DOS or UNIX "secondary shell" invocation
for true Z-System shells as well as for "ZCPR2-style"
shells like MEX with MEX2Z or Sage-modified WS4.
COPY vs 1.71 - COPY is the ZSDOS file copying tool adapted from
(37k) MCOPY.COM. Version 1.71 offers improved control over
the erasure of read-only files. It also contains many
bug fixes and should now work correctly under ZRDOS,
Z3Plus and even vanilla CP/M.
CRUNCH vs 2.8 - CRUNCH and UNCR are the file compression and decompress-
(39k) ion tools for ZCPR3 and CP/M. UNCR works on crunched,
squeezed, and LZH files. Under ZSDOS, date stamps are
embedded in the crunched file and restored when
uncrunched. CRUNCH can now exclude system files and
handle up to 512 matching files. ZCNFG configuration
and PCP support are also provided. Versions 2.7 and 2.8
fix a couple of bugs and include smaller ZCPR3-only
versions.
PRINT vs 2.3 - PRINT23 is derived from R. Conn's original PRINT III
(41k) program. It is configurable without reassembly using
ZCNFG (included) and includes the the Date & Time in the
page header if you are using ZSDOS, ZDDOS, Z3PLUS, or
DateStamper and have a real time clock installed and
active. Version 2.3 uses file datestamps whenever they
are available, otherwise it uses the current system
time.
SALIAS vs 1.5c - SALIAS is a full screen alias editor and generator for
(33k) ZCPR3. Version 1.5c uses the ALIAS 1.7 template by Joe
Wright.
UNERASE vs 1.4 - UNERAS is a ZCPR3 utility for recovering files that have
(22k) been erased in error. It also lists erased files on
disk without recovering them. Vs 1.4 is faster on hard
disks under ZSDOS and ZRDOS. Not for Z3PLUS.
Z3LOC vs 1.9 - Z3LOC locates and displays the addresses of the running
ZCPR3 CPR, BDOS, and BIOS. Vs 1.9 is functionally near-
identical to Joe Wright's Vs 1.8, but has been shrunken
back to 16 records (an even 2K) for the benefit of ram-
disk and floppy-bound users. Z3LOC assembles with M80
or RMAC and Z80.LIB. SLRMAC will doubtless also handle
it. It will still run on 8080/8085 systems and under
vanilla CP/M.
and additional files Z3HELP39.LBR and ZFILEB39.LZT.
10. Z-SUS Disk, Vol 2 #09 (06/15/91).............................(268k) $12.00
Contains the following update libraries:
AFIND vs 1.4 - AFIND finds aliases created by ALIAS, BALIAS, SALIAS,
(8k) VALIAS and the like. It lists the Drive/User, the file
name and the text of each alias that it finds. Version
1.4 fixes a problem in the display of high user area
numbers. Still under 1K.
CL vs 1.0 - CL is a highly enhanced version of a utility created by
(25k) Michal Carson in early 1989. Its main function is to
"compact" an LBR file, that is, to eliminate the "dead
space" caused by member files marked as "deleted." CL
performs this task without the disk space appetite of
LU's "-R" or NULU's "-K," and is itself only 4K in
length. It can also erase members from the LBR, lists
and wildcards allowed. For CP/M 2.2, with runtime ZCPR3
support.
COMMENT vs 2.1 - COMMENT is designed to facilitate communication between
(7k) two users who see the same console via redirectable I/O.
It allows the user to type as many lines as he wishes
without them being processed by ZCPR3. It echoes lines,
with simple character editing, to the user's console, so
that he can chat freely. Version 2.1 improvements: the
line-wrap algorithm is now slightly less primitive, the
Z3 environment is consulted to obtain the screen width,
the wheel byte is checked before allowing the printer to
be toggled on, a Type 3 format with safety header is
implemented, code has been tightened overall and linked
with latest Z3LIB and SYSLIB.
DSTATS vs 1.0 - DSTATS is a ZCPR3 disk/user statistics utility which
(17k) displays disk block size, disk capacity, allocated and
free space, and a list of active user areas. For each
active user area, it displays any label filename found
(-LABEL), the number of files and directory entries as
well as the total number of files and directory entries
and, except under Z3PLUS, an optional disk allocation
bitmap. Combines DSKMAP and many functions of UMAP.
LBREXT vs 3.2 - Version 3.2 of the Z-System library file extract utility
(35k) contains the following changes: Create and modify times
are automatically read from the LBR directory. The code
that forced all extractions to the default directory if
Wheel not set has been removed. Optimized I/O routines
result in slightly better performance.
LPUT vs 2.0 - LPUT builds LU/NULU-identical LBR files and adds/
(36k) replaces members. ZCPR3-dependent, it's fully
compatible with Plu*Perfect DateStamper, converting
dates supplied by DS or imbedded by CR23D.COM to the
DRI-style format specified in LUDEF5.DOC. Version 2.0
stores create and modify times as well as dates in the
LBR directory. Also, the command line parser now
accepts an input filespec of dir: which is equivalent to
dir:*.*.
LREPAIR vs 1.0 - LREPAIR is an LBR file integrity tester with limited
(9k) correction capabilities. It reports the CRC of all or
the selected member files to the CRT, along with whether
its findings agree with the values stored in the LBR
directory. If the stored CRC is 0000h and the member
file isn't empty (as is the case for LBRs written to by
LBRDISK or old versions of LU and NULU), it will fix the
CRC, as well as strip any high bits in member filename
entries.
MYLOAD vs 1.1 - Version 1.1 of Hal Bower's MLOAD alternative adds
(17k) TINIT/DINIT calls, Program Error Flag Support, improved
Z3 filename parsing, and the program's actual (EFCB)
name in the syntax help screen. Improvements to the
LIBs enable this to be done while keeping MYLOAD under
the 4K mark.
REMIND vs 1.2 - REMIND is an appointment reminder utility for ZCPR3 and
(36k) ZSDOS with clock. It displays [and can print] a sorted
and paged list of dated appointment reminder lines,
with optional time entries, from a text datafile,
starting with any currently dated reminders. It can
write a new sorted datafile. Include REMIND in your
startup alias to automatically display today's appoint-
ments and/or upcoming reminders. V1.2 has bug fixes,
adds a TPA check.
UMAP vs 1.7 - UMAP shows a brief disk map: which users have files and
(23k) how many directory entries the files use. It also can
show only a brief summary of the number of entries used,
the number still free, and free disk space. Or it can
show a list of empty directories. Type-3 and Type-4
versions included. Version 1.7 displays the directory
name for each user.
Z-RIP vs 1.3 - This version of the ZCPR3 Rapid Install Program has a
(5k) number of functional and cosmetic improvements,
including Type 4 support and improved filename display.
Still only 1K. Since modern CPRs auto-install the
environment pointer, Z-RIP is really of value mostly to
programmers, to help ensure valid debugging results.
Version 1.3 fixes the FCB init. bug introduced in
Version 1.2.
and additional files Z3HELP40.LBR and ZFILEB40.LZT.
11. Z-SUS Disk, Vol 2 #10 (08/01/91).............................(274k) $12.00
Contains the following update libraries:
NAME vs 1.2 - NAME renames and deletes directory names on-the-fly.
(9k) Still well under 2k, it is the easiest-to-use tool for
NDR manipulation. Use with SAVNDR and a system loader
(JetLdr, NZCOM, LLDR, LDR, etc.) or with a "system
snapshot" utility (SNAP, LAP, NZBLITZ, etc.) to make
changes permanent. Vs. 1.2 has been recoded to work
with the new (vs 4.4a), bugs-fixed Z3LIB.
NTS vs 1.0 - Based on NT, the Note Taker, NTS is a simple full screen
(9k) editor which appends short notes to files, including the
current time. Command set is based on WordStar (tm).
NZBLITZ vs 1.4 - NZBLITZ is an NZCOM system save/load utility which
(22k) creates stand-alone COM files that will load fully
configured NZCOM systems in a fraction of the time of an
ordinary NZCOM load. Configure with ZCNFG to save up to
CBIOS, top-of-memory or to a specified address, which
allows saving systems that have above-CBIOS Z-system
buffers as well as the fully configured/initialized
CBIOS. Can be included in alias scripts for quick
system customization.
POKE vs 1.1 - POKE is the transient Z33+ memory poker. Version 1.1
(7k) implements word-wide operations when a hex number of
three or more digits is used. This is particularly
useful when used with late-model aliases and their
pointer capability, which returns word-wide values.
Through judicious use of POKE11, these values can be
passed to system registers for use for flow control in
subsequent aliases or with RESOLVE, etc.
ROMAN vs 1.0 - ROMAN is a ZCPR3 utility that converts between decimal
(14k) numbers and Roman numerals. It works from the command
line, or in interactive mode. Version 1.0 converts
either way, and includes a standard COM file that runs
under vanilla CP/M and Type-3 (loading at 8000h) and
Type-4 versions.
TXTALIAS vs 1.0 - TXTALIAS is a true ZCPR3 tool that "compiles" standlone
(17k) aliases from standard ASCII "source" files. It is
conceptually similar to ACREATE and BA24, but supports
assembler-style comments and multiple newlines in the
source file, has Joe Wright's latest ALIAS0 built-in
rather than using a separate "alias template" file,
allows VALIAS-style "recursive" aliases, and has Program
Error Flag support for automation of alias development.
VREN vs 1.1 - VREN, a ZCPR3 Visual file RENamer, provides interactive
(31k) renaming of files with format checking. Vs 1.1
implements a Type 4 version under 4K in size, signifi-
cantly downsizes the MYSORT module, and introduces
WILDEN, a wild-card expansion module derived from WILDEX
that detects whether its host program is a Type 4 and
allocates buffer space accordingly.
ZDT vs 0.9 - ZDT is an evaluation release of the Z-System Day Timer,
(9k) a daily planning calendar derived from ZDB. If your
system has a real-time clock, ZDT automatically reads it
and displays the current day's schedule, checking the
data file for any previously entered appointments,
memos, etc. ZDT will also work with manual date entry.
Requires ZCPR 3.0 or higher, VLIB4+ and extended TCAP.
Small, feature packed just like ZDB. Release 0.9 fixes
bug in 0.8B which caused ZDT to lose track of the date.
ZFIND vs 1.3 - ZFIND is a ZCPR3 string search utility which very
(34k) quickly finds ASCII strings in text files using the
Boyer-Moore string search algorithm. It is similar to
Irv Hoff's FIND.COM, but MUCH faster. Can search all
user areas on a drive. The matched string can be
displayed in either the line or the delimited block in
which it was found, and the output can be written or
appended to a file. Use it for fast lookups in magazine
article indexes, MAST.CAT files, etc. Vs 1.2 adds a new
"context" option.
and additional files Z3HELP41.LBR, ZFILEB41.LZT, and ZNODES63.LZT.
12. Z-SUS Disk, Vol 2 #11 (09/08/91).............................(280k) $12.00
Contains the following update libraries:
CPD vs 1.0 - CPD compares two directories and indicates which files
(21k) exist in both directories and which exist only in the
first directory. It also allows setting the archive
attribute on those files which exist in both director-
ies, facilitating copying those that do not.
DIALER vs 1.0 - DIALER is a simple Z-System utility that allows your
(9k) computer and Hayes-compatible modem to dial your voice
telephone calls. It's particularly helpful for script-
ing your way through banking and other touch-tone based
response systems, but could be combined with other Z-
System tools to implement a phone number directory,
among other potential uses. Type 3 (@100h) and Type 4
versions are included, both well under 2K.
DSTATS vs 1.2 - DSTATS is a ZCPR3 disk/user statistics utility which
(19k) displays the maximum directory entries, block size, disk
capacity, allocated and free space, and a list of active
user areas. For each active user area, it displays any
label filename found (-LABEL), the number of files, dir-
ectory entries and disk space used, and summarizes the
total number of files, directory entries and disk free
space. Except under Z3PLUS, a disk allocation bitmap
may be displayed.
LDIR-B vs 2.1 - LDIRB shows member files in a library along with their
(25k) create and modify dates, sizes, compression method, and
their uncompressed filenames, and summarizes the number
of active, deleted, and free library directory entries.
Runs under CP/M 2.2 and CP/M Plus, with several enhance-
ments under ZCPR3. Version 2.1 makes several display
changes.
LIBS vs 4.4a - This release of the LIBRARIES Version 4.4 solves many
(65k) problems reported over the past year or so. Version
4.4a corrects NDR bugs in the June 4.4 release and adds
Drive Vector checking of ZFNAME/ZPRSFN Drives if operat-
ing under Extended Environments. It also adds some
bulletproofing to GETMSG (and several other modules) to
prevent programs from bombing if executed under a system
with No valid Environment. Microsoft REL format only.
REMIND vs 1.4 - REMIND, an appointment reminder utility for ZCPR3 and
(36k) DOS clock, displays a calendar for the current month and
displays [and can print] a sorted and paged list of
dated appointment reminder lines with optional time
entries from a text datafile, starting with any current-
ly dated reminders. All upcoming reminders can be
displayed as well as upcoming reminders for a specified
month.
UNZIP vs 1.5 - UNZIP dissolves MS-DOS ZIP files. Version 1.4 incorpor-
(23k) ated some quick and dirty mods to make a more useful
utility. It now accepts DU and DIR specs for the ZIP
file and as the destination for extracted files. Output
filenames are supported. UNZIP can now be aborted with
^C without leaving partial files on disk. The code is a
little more orderly and now assembles with SLR's Z80ASM.
Version 1.5 fixes several serious bugs but is otherwise
identical to 1.4.
ZCRCK vs 1.4 - This release of the dual-polynomial Z-System CRC checker
(16k) introduces sorting of the file list for a neater, more
readable display and includes a new Type 4 executable.
ZCRCK reports both the CRCK (Keith Petersen's hash code
checksum) and CHEK (the CCITT 16-bit CRC standard)
values to CON: and optionally to LST: and/or the disk
file "CRC.CRC."
and additional files Z3HELP42.LBR and ZFILEB42.LZT.
13. Z-SUS Disk, Vol 2 #12 (11/18/91).............................(279k) $12.00
Contains the following update libraries:
LSH vs 1.1 - LSH is a history and command line editing shell. It
(66k) records command lines to a text file which may be edited
and recycled as desired. Editing commands are similar
to WordStar's. LINST is used to install command prefer-
ences. Vs 1.1 establishes a fixed log version (using a
fixed-size history file), adds a /C option to invoke LSH
once (instead of loading the shell), command completion
(an idea taken from PCED), an installable user routine
and other coding changes and bug fixes.
NTS vs 1.1b - Based on NT, the Note Taker, NTS appends short notes to
(31k) files, automatically including the current time. It has
a simple full screen editor whose command set is based
on WordStar (tm). Vs 1.1 and 1.1b add a /D option to
omit the date separator between notes, an option to skip
the output filename prompt on exit, and ZCNFG configura-
tion.
ZCNFG vs 2.1 - ZCNFG configures COM files in Z-system and CP/M. Vs 2.1
(115k) expands the Text String functions 1 and 5 to include
null or '$' terminated strings. A new function 9 makes
it easier to configure escape keys and printer strings.
New .HLP files describe the enhancements. You need
this; earlier versions will choke on .CFG files that use
the new functions.
ZERR vs 1.6 - ZERR is a simple error handler derived from EASE 1.6z by
(49k) Paul Pomerleau. When a program signals ZCPR to invoke
the error handler, ZERR prints an informative message
describing the error and presents the bad command for
editing. The user can then cancel, skip (in a multiple
command line), or fix the command. Vs 1.6 fixes an
error in the SUBMIT job cancellation code and uses the
new System Libraries version 4.4.
and the additional file ZFILEB43.LZT.
