I've just worked out how to post an original message, so here goes:

I'm looking for a description of the command language, operating system,
or whatever you'd like to call it that's built into the Tandy Portable
Disk Drive.  I want to use mine with machines other than the M100/102,
specifically a NEC8401 and a PClone.  I have done some snooping on the
serial line, and suspect that given time I'll be able to work out what's
happening, but it is complex and cryptic enough that that will take some
time.  Being in Northern Australia, I do not have access to Compuserve
or other commercial information utilities, so can't try there.  Surely
someone out there has seen this info.  All responses will be very
gratefully received.

Thanks in Advance,
Ross Alford
