If you were stuck on an island with a solar-powered
CP/M machine and
only
one floppy disk in CP/M 2.2 format, which programs and utilities would
you
want on that disk?
I'd have two floppies.
Any opinions of what I should distribute with the emulator? Here is what
I
am planning on so far:
STAT
PIP
ASM
MAC
DDT
ED
DUMP
LOAD
SUBMIT
XSUB
How about a decent editor?
Unfortunately, I don't have FORMAT, MOVCPM, PUTSYS,
GETSYS, or SYSGEN
since
None of those are very meaningful for an emulator.
Although there are lots of replacement programs for
those listed above
that
are undoubtedly better than the stock CP/M 2.2 programs, I am going to
use
the originals from D.R. and leave it up to any user who cares enough to
customize it as they see fit.
Why? will the emulator provide a way to create a new disk drive?
