Some of the programs have files scattered between numerous disks, mixed in
with bits and pieces of other programs. Sheesh. It's going to take some
time to sort this headache out. I must be out of my mind.

If the old CPMUG is still functioning (I think it is), get a copy of their
catalog. Most of the public domain stuff was in that data base at one time.
I bought some disks from them in 1996 so I know they were still around them.
There was a CPMUG on Compuserve also. Try that bunch for sure as they had
several folks knowledgable in CP/M 2.2 and CP/M 3.0.
Good Luck.

The numbers look like some of those on several dozen diskettes I've got,
time.
from the CP/M SIG or CPMUG. There is an index, and it
should shed some
light on the dialect and version of the BASIC programs, etc.
Unfortunately, this index is a separate file.

The WC cdrom has the CPMUG catalogs and vols.
