Message-ID: <893@bnl.UUCP> Date: Sun, 3-Mar-85 13:19:57 EST Article-I.D.: bnl.893 Posted: Sun Mar 3 13:19:57 1985 Date-Received: Fri, 8-Mar-85 04:06:13 EST Distribution: net Lines: 15 I'm confused. I have only a limited amount of time to get files from SIMTEL20 (I'll be off the net i 3 months) and have yet to figure out how to unsqueeze files onces they're FTP'd here. ZCPR3 looks like a good software package to spend my time on getting to my micro, but it appears to be way too large to run usefully on my Z80: 2 ss/dd disks, 188Kb each. Has anyone usefully and efficently used these programs with limited disk space? I FTP'd the ZCPR newsletters and they only confused me further since it looks like a hard disk is needed for the most effective use of ZCPR. Should I spend my time trying to get Small C running instead? Any opinions would be appreciated dan davison ...decvax!philabs!sbcs!bnl!davison davison@bnl.arpa, .bitnet
