Hi there,
as there is now an compile-option for RunCPM to deactivate all internal commands I'm searching for .COM replacements to fill this gap with some nicer or more beautiful or designed versions of the standard internal CP/M-CCP-standard-commands
But ATTENTION - we cant use a CCP-Replacement like XCCP or EPEX, because the RunCPM CCP isnt like a real CCP and cant be replaced and this function isnt emulated (external CCPs then do freeze at startup)
The following standard commands are included in the "internal CCP" of RunCPM:
DIR , ERA , TYPE , SAVE , REN and USER
Additional some RunCPM own extra command included in the "internal CCP":
CLS , DEL (alias of ERA) , EXIT , PAGE , VOL and ? (Help)
WIth nicer or designed commands/output I mean something like - the maybe good known SD.COM - as replacement for DIR
For ERA , REN it would be nice to get an (more) informative feedback
(like - if you know it - the difference on DOS when using 4DOS (COMMAND.COM replacement) against the normal MS-DOS.
4DOS under DOS tells which file was deleted (or how much files) or gives more feedback on rename.
Also for USER only a textual feedback would be nice.
In RunCPM you can change the User-Area with "USER 1" to change from A0: to A1: - but you also could give only "A1:" to go from A0: to A1:
For CLS is no feedback needed and I also have a small ASM-Programm or a version compiled in Turbo Pascal
For DEL we could use a copy of ERA.COM (while we cant create a Alias)
EXIT is only used in non Microcontroller-version to go back to DOS/Windows/Linux prompt
PAGE sets the Page-Size for TYPE
VOL and ? are only some informational commands for RunCPM
VOL lists the contents of a Info-File where the User can store a Volume-Info (like types of Programms in this volume)
and ? gives a short overview of the internal commands.
It would be nice when you could recommend some external .COM-replacements to get back the full function when deactivating the internal CCP-commands...
Many thans for reading and your interest in advance
