Re: Wordstar 4 on Apple II

["Mark Cummings" <NOTfigjams@primus.com.au>]

I have a PCPI card and bootable CP/M 3.5" disk image. if anyone wants it
send me an e-mail and I'll e-mail it.
IIRC the disk image is in Shrinkit 3.4 format.
Only problem with it is I havn't got it to read 5.25 disks at the same time,
it probably needs to have the drivers set up properly. This makes it rather
hard to get anything across from 5.25.
I just checked the drive size and it's about 400K minus a bit for the OS.

Works on a //e too if you have the right 3.5 controller.
