This is a generic CP/M 3 adaptation for RomWBW.



There are two ways to launch CP/M 3.  First, you can run the command

CPMLDR from a CP/M 2.2 or Z-System command line.  Alternatively, you can

boot directly into CP/M 3 by choosing the CP/M 3 disk from the RomWBW

loader prompt.  The CP/M 3 disk must be bootable in this case.



With the following exceptions, the files in this directory came from

the CP/M 3 binary distribution on "The Unofficial CP/M Web site" at

http://www.cpm.z80.de/binary.html.



The included files have been

patched with all applicable DRI patches per CPM3FIX.PAT.



ZSID.COM is the original DRI ZSID distribution, but patched to use 

RST 6 instead of RST 7 to avoid conflicting with mode 1 interrupts.



CP/M 3 is now fully Year 2000 compliant. This affects the programs

DATE.COM, DIR.COM and SHOW.COM.



Dates can be displayed in US, UK or Year-Month-Day format. This is set by

SETDEF:

      SETDEF [US]

      SETDEF [UK]

      SETDEF [YMD]  respectively.



The CCP has a further bug fix: A command sequence such as:



  C1

  :C2

  :C3



will now not execute the command C3 if the command C1 failed.
