I used to think that CP/M was great but I just
got a system with
ZCPR3
and it's dynamite!

To make a point. ZCPRx is CP/M!
Thanks but I figured that out from the source code listings.
ZCPR is a replacement for the
rather anemic CCP (console command processor) and a
few
additional utilities.
Correct. The command processor and utilities are *MUCH* better than
those in CP/M. The difference is like night and day!
Of ten the BDOS and BIOS are unchanged
and that is the core of CP/M. The CCP is user interface.
The DOS analog of that would be Windows3.1 is not DOS.
See the point!
????? I don't understand this comment. Or at least I hope I don't. ZCPR
isn't a GUI. It's nothing like Windozes, it's a MUCH better command line
interface.
Now ZRDOS or ZSDOS is a totally different codebase and
non DRI product that is CP/M compatable and draws form
the ZCPRx lineage.
I can't say that I've ever heard of them.
BTW one of my current projects uses MP/M. CP/M is childs play compared
to it! The hardwre isn't that much more complicated but the operating
system is MUCH more complex.
