Entry 1st October 2022: Post 2: AmigaZ80 - CP/M Emulator.
AmigaZ80 - CP/M Emulator.
Some years back I discussed the CP/M emulator for the Amiga on
the Yahoo Groups. I gave the link but never tried it out for
myself. I have run the program on the Amiga emulator and whilst
I managed to get the window active I had no keyboard control. So
tomorrow I will try on an actual Amiga, and see how I get on.
For now I give you the Aminet link for the emulator plus the
readme file. So catch up later this week and see how I got on.
Just been advised of a CP/M Emulator for the Amiga

[ below not my words ]
This is the best CP/M ver. 2.2 emulator for Amiga computers. It
is run from the CLI (Command Line Interface) shell.
There are CPU-specific versions of the program for the 68000, 68010,
68020, 68030, 68040 CPUs, & a generic version (AMIGAZ80.ALL). If
you have a 68060 accelerator, use the 68040-specific CPU version.
The program is written in C, so don't expect assembler execution
speeds.
I believe that the author, Bill Haygood told me that the screen
format this CP/M emulator uses is an ADM3 (?) or something like
that. It's definitely not using Osborne screen control characters.
I asked him about that. Just something to keep in mind when
installing WordStar 4.0 or dBase 2.43*, both of which I legally
own, under this emulator.
