Hello everybody!

Lately, I bought a copy of WordStar, CP/M Edition, Release 4. As the delivered
printer drivers (incl. CUSTOM and SIMPLE) do not fit my needs, I would like to
write a new one which does.

The WSCHANGE program offers a function 'add new driver', which expects some
driver file of the type '.DRV'. 
However, there is *NO* documentation about format and software interface of
these '.DRV' files, nor about file format and spec's of the drivers itself,
nor about the complete WSPRINT.OVR file.

I wrote to the MicroPro Customer Service in San Rafael, but I got no answer
at all. The german MicroPro office didn't even know of WS 4 for CP/M.

Can anybody help with detailed information?
(or even supply e-mail contact address of MicroPro)
Thanks in advance.
