    Go here:

    http://www.classiccmp.org/cpmarchives/ftp.php?b=cpm%2FSoftware%2FHumongous%2FGames%2FInfocom

    And download info-CPM.zip and Info-CPM2.zip. They have CP/M .com files pre-configured for a dozen different monitors, list of screen codes for those monitors, and utilities and instructions to roll your own.

    Hi! Is there an updated link for those packages? All the searches I could think of did not work.

    I'm currently working on a new infocom interpreters which supports more recent games, and I'd love to see common terminals used in this package, and any surrounding information.

    Many thanks,
    Shawn
