I've seen in an old issue of "kilobaud microcomputing" an ad from
Digital Research stating that CP/M 86 could operate on an IBM
DisplayWriter. Does anyone have a bootable CP/M 86 that can
operate on a DisplayWriter? Also, if this is true, what CP/M software
is available? A friend has a nice unit he got for nothing and it makes
a nifty word processor, but if it can work as a computer as well...
that would be great. All he has with it is a self-booting word processor
disk which has only rudimentary DOS functions like delete file.

						thanks very much
