I have an S-100 system running CP/M Plus and would like to add bit-mapped graphics capability and develop some window-based software. GSX-80 sounds like a reasonable software base but I have been unable to get any info about it from DR. Is GSX-80 still alive ? (Is DR still alive?). Do any of the graphics hardware vendors support it? I am hoping to use CP/M Plus memory banking to build a single-user, multi-tasking extension based on a window manager. Other than the window system itself, the biggest problem seems to be file handling. Does anyone know of any fundamental problems in using CP/M 3.0 this way. Does D.R. have any intentions to introduce additional CP/M-80 products? Thanks for any advice you can give. Bob Haar
