   Somebody here asked me if we had a ZMP overlay for the Osborne 1
some time ago, and I had a look into it. I gave up, mainly because there
seemed to be a bewildering array of different RS232 interfaces for the
things, and also because I didn't actually have one of the beasties
to work on (which makes it much harder!). I would appreciate a copy of
your ZMP overlay if possible.

   While I'm at it, I'm taking suggestions for the next version(s) of
ZMP and RZMP. Anyone got anything they'd like to see included?
