Message-ID: Date: 2 Mar 90 14:46:15 GMT Sender: news@linus.UUCP Distribution: na Organization: The MITRE Corp. Bedford, MA Lines: 17 I have a Tandy (Radio Shack) WP2, and I am trying to find info on writing a program for it. The machine is a 3 lb. word processor with an 8x80 char screen and full keyboard. It has built in "applications" but they are really wimpy. It has a RUN function for starting up a program if you happen to have one loaded. The processor is a Z80, not CP/M or anything. Apparently Tandy considers the particulars of this machine to be one of the great industrial secrets of this decade. No way they'll part with any info unless you represent a major software developer. Anyone have a clue as to how it works inside, or how to find out? I can't pull out the ROM and read it from some burner type of device. thanks, -- B< Brian Kahn blk@security.mitre.org "may the farce be with you"
