The easiest way to speed the start up of CP/M WS 3.3 is to use DDT to put
a NOP just after the start of the screen data, which is near the front of
the ws.com file (I think the file's right - I know its near the front). I
found the right place pretty quickly, but it was a few years ago.

I also wrote an overlay to patch WS 3.3 with MLOAD, once and for all. If 
anyone wants a copy, email me and I'll try to dig it out.  Basically (well,
assembler, actually...) a list of all the patch points I could dig out of
miscellaneous sources.

Good luck - Will
