G+PLUS is a commercial product of Codehead Software, written by
Charles F. Johnson and John Eidsvoog... (I can only hope Charles doesn't
read this...  :)
 
 G+PLUS is a faster *and complete* replacement for GDOS.  Anything which
uses GDOS will work faster and better with G+PLUS.  Unlike GDOS, G+PLUS
is a fully supported product.  Among its advanced features is the ability
to choose among several ASSIGN.SYS files, and to re-load a different one
at any time.
 
G+PLUS should be available at your "local" Atari dealer for about $25.
