- -READ.ME A description of ZAP35.LBR
-
- This is SUPERZAP, version 3.5, a public domain program (not
- to be confused with a commercial program of the same name).
- SuperZap is a menu-driven disk editor. It will access and
- directly edit programs by track and sector, or by files. It is
- easy to use and only 10k in size when uncrunched.
-
- SuperZap (SPZ) has had an erratic history, largely because
- the program was written and upgraded in Great Britain, and
- circulated in the U.S. in spurts. It was distributed in 1984
- under the filename SUPERZAP.LBR, the program being version 2.2.
- The documentation described features the program did not possess,
- and seemed hard to follow. A few years later, SuperZap version
- 3.3 made its way over here, and it was discovered that the
- documentation which accompanied version 2.2 belonged to version
- 3.3. The new program was issued as SUPZAP33.LBR. When the
- authors released version 3.4, they changed the filename to
- ZAP34.LBR. This incarnation is ZAP35.
-
- I obtained these files from Royal Oak RCPM in Detroit (phone
- 313/759-6569) under the name ZAP35.ARC. I de-ARCed it, and made
- the following alterations:
-
- The .COM file in the original archive was configured for an
- ANSI terminal; it has been renamed to ZAP35ANS.COM. I copied the
- file and patched it to run on a Kaypro 4-84 (ADM-3a terminal); it
- is ZAP35KP.COM. I altered the text of ZAP.33 to include patching
- address for version 3.5. I also added the SPZ.DOC to this
- library.

- 26 July 1986 - SUPERZAP 3.4b
-
- Version V3.5 is a bug fix in the direct cursor addressing
- routines. The defaults have been set to ANSI type terminals and
- disable the special end-of-line recognition installed for V3.4.
- Follow instructions in ZAP35.DOC for enabling the recognizer.

- ================================================================
-
- This file holds material for a revision of SUPERZAP v3.3 to
- include string and hex-sequence search capabilities on a given
- file, and some 'enhancements' to the TYPE option, including 80
- col. display, and allowances for viewing word-processed files
- of some commoner kinds.
-
- It includes fixes to bugs in earlier versions of this mod
- uploaded to Tesseract RCPM+ in July 1986, but god knows there
- are probably more still lurking. (I THINK this time I'm closer
- to getting it working properly, he said...)
