Here is what I did to get a working copy of a terminal program under CP/M (IMP.COM): I first downloaded a copy of IMP.COM from a local BBS. Next I downloaded a copy of the 64CONVRT program. Boot up CP/M and type FORMAT to format a new CP/M disk. Select 64 SINGLE SIDED. The convert program will only read/write to this format. Run the convert program and transfer the terminal program to the new CP/M disk. Once you have the program on a CP/M disk you can then transfer it over to a double sided c128 CP/M format. Once you get IMP up and running, you can download CP/M programs directly to a CP/M formatted disk.
