The first doesn't matter much, the second matters A LOT! 1. The ST version is several revisions along from the CP/M-68K version. It has some bug fixes, and some improvements in the library. 2. It has been changed to put out a different set of TRAP calls to the operating system. CP/M-68K uses TRAP #2 for BDOS calls. GEM and TOS use a variety of TRAP #1, #2, and who knows what else. This is probably ONLY in the run-time library, and you could probably patch it with effort, but it would be a noticeable job without source code.
