Does anyone have a copy of CP/M TEX (preferably for CP/M-86)?
The manual is available form the usual places, unfortunately the binary
is not.
Thanks,

I searched a 1994 CP/M CD-ROM by Walnut Creek and found no TEX.

That's a text processor but it's not "TeX".

You are quite right. Sorry, in some haste I noted the expression TEX in

Your directions were dead on. I'll have to compare the docs and see how
close the mark-up is.
BTW: I also fond a troff implementation in SIMTEL/SIGM/

New subject: cool find...
Tonight I was pretty lucky...I happened to come across a near
perfect copy of Charles K. Adams' book 'How To Build Your Own Working
Microcomputer'. It's hardback and copyright 1980. It looks to have
a lot of good info in it.

Nice. Old computer books can be very interesting. I recently picked up
"Computer Peripherals That You Can Build" by Dr. Gordon Wolfe. I've spent
much time going over it, reading up 8-bit data buses and how to interface
with them. It then devels into what really fascinates me : switches and
blinken lights! OK, so maybe the switches is in fact a joystick and the
blinken light is a DAC controling a plotter. :)
It details a cool interface for sending serial data over electrical wiring.
Sort of a bare bones X10. And of course much much more.

CP/M TEX was a commercial product (from DRI). I'd have been surprised to
find it on the Walnut Creek CD-ROM.
Thanks for looking...
