  • Tips/tricks for Peter Hochstrasser's Modula-2 System for Z80 CP/M?

    From Brian Knoblauch@21:1/5 to All on Sun Apr 4 06:46:44 2021
    Ran across this recently http://www.cpm.z80.de/develop.htm and figured I'd give it a shot. I've got a Commodore 128 as well as the VICE emulator to play around with it. Curious if anyone else has and if there are any tips/tricks/interesting
    observations for it.

    Thanks,
    Brian

    I've been able to get the ZP/M clone of CP/M up and running on my Commodore 128 with a BackBit device for I/O. Tested with available Assembly and BASIC disk images and performance is a bit slow, but usable. This Modula-2 system doesn't have a pre-made
    disk image (just loose files), so that adds a wrinkle for me to work out (especially with a 4 mounted disk limitation on CP/M). Currently looking for good disk image building software for Commodore, hoping that I'll be able to combine all these files
    into a single large disk (maybe .d71, possibly .d81?). Wouldn't mind finding a good freeware editor for CP/M too as "ed" is going to get a bit tedious!
