recently, i got more invloved with my apple with cpm.
except some common commands like pip, stat and wordstar,
i don't know much about cpm.
i downloaded many startrek programs from toronto RCPM, i can't compile
most of thee startrek games. some because of space limit or many
errors. i, then, followed the simple doc with a game called 'strtrk/1.bas'
which tells me it may compile with basic-e,(a public domain basic compiler
which i also download from there). some problems meet, the startrek games
i downloaded with source, some are not compatible with basic-e or the source
file is damaged( i found some incomplete statements).
i only succeed in compile on version with basic-e, can anyone give me
some more info about basic-e, like the book.
any better suggestions about a better basic compiler?
any good public domain word processor you have used? send me the name
of the program, so i can search through RCPM.
now, i found that many good cpm programs are in public domain, can you
suggest some of them?
i have used modem7, mex, nulu ,d and cat.
any apple users have successfully run/compile the bigtrek?
is it possible for us to compile/run a big basic program like that in
the 56K cpm v2.2 with an apple?
thanks a lot.
