Upgrade your CCP in CP/M v2.2

Показать описание
There were a lot of alternative CCPs created for CP/M v2.2 to address some of the original CCP's shortcomings. In this video I show you how to download the source of Z80CCP, extract it from an ARK file, convert it from 8080 mnemonics to Z80 syntax, and install it on the Z80 Playground.

Lots of retro people like later versions of CP/M... but, for me, 2.2 is THE classic.... much hacking pleasure in the olden days.

When I was first fiddling around with alternative CCPs I wrote a couple of utilities GETCCP and PUTCCP which read/write the CCP to the boot tracks from a specified file. (I also wrote GET/PUT BDOS and BIOS as well to complete the set.)

Very helpful. I'd never heard of ZTRAN4

ztran sounds ACE... I always hated 8080 mnemonics. A nice Z80 assembler on CP/M sounds like a childhood dream come true.... do you have syntax highlighting on CP/M too????

Any chance you could make a video or provide resources for assembly programming with the Z80 playground? Additionally, info on usage of the I/O headers on the computer would be fantastic. Additionally, documentation of the CORE functions would be awesome. If you're willing, the source code would of course be the most helpful. I have managed to use CP/M to load a basic program I wrote in asm to blink the user LED, which is a good start, but of course I'd like to do much more. Having fun with it so far though. Thanks!
EDIT: Just saw your comments on waiting to release the code; totally understandable, I can relate! :) Looking forward to all of this!

I've not played with the Z80 yet, but plan to as soon as I finish up my breadboard 6502 computer. I was wondering though, do you know if there' an OS for the 6502 equivalent to CP/M? It seems everyone has their own little monitor program, but no standard OS seems to be prevalent.
