PROGRAMS folder in the CP/M 2.2 folder
Posted: February 19th, 2014, 11:18 pm
I have added a "programs" folder within the CP/M 2.2 folder that is accessible from the CP/M link on the support page (http://altairclone.com/downloads/cpm/CP ... /programs/). Presently, there are three programs in this folder (along with their source code) that users of CP/M 2.2 on the Altair may find useful. The programs can be easily loaded onto an Altair running CP/M using the "PCGET" program.
AUTORUN.COM allows you to configure an auto-run command when CP/M boots (cold start, warm start or both).
PUNMSG.COM allows you to type in a message and punch it in human readable form on a Teletype’s paper tape punch.
SERBUF.COM allows the Altair to serve as a buffer between a PC and older serial devices that don't play well with USB to serial adapters (e.g., Teletypes, the 88-ACR Cassette Interface, serial devices with small buffers that require handshaking, etc.)
See the ReadMe.pdf file in the folder for more information about the programs.
