I have recently obtained a CP/M card for my Apple II+ computer (without
documentation) and was wondering if anyone could help me out with a few
questions...

1)  The card has four binary switches on it.  They are all set to the
    OFF position.  I was wondering what exactly these switches are for.

2)  Of the several disks I obtained with the card, I have a program
    called 'NULU' which deals with libraries.  I was wondering what the
    purpose of a library is and how you go about using one.  I have
    only one '.LBR' file on the disks called 'LUX42.LBR' (on the modem7
    program disk) and haven't been able to manipulate the data in it to
    any great extent (other than listing it's members using 'NULU').

I believe the card is refered to as a Z-80 Softcard and doesn't appear
to have any manufacturer's markings on it.  Therefore, I don't believe
it is actually an Apple made card.

Can anyone enlighten me soas I may get the maximum use out of this
system.  I have used the CP/M OS with some success and really like what
it does for my rather modest system.
