    Howdy! Harry,

    Did the box Spinnaker BetterWorking Power C for C=64 and C=128 comes in
    have a Book/Manual with the Disks?

    I have the Disks but have looked for the Book but can't find it.

    If there is a Book I sure misplaced it.

    On Side 2 of the Power C Disk is a PRG called Instructions, but it only mentions how to use the Terminal PRG.

    I looked at the Index on Zimmers.net to see if there was anything about
    the Power C software but didn't find any thing.

    I Searched for the words "Spinnaker" "Power C" "book" and saw some sites
    that had info but Avast (the Anti-Virus I use) put a Grey mark
    (instead of a Green mark) next to some of them so I haven't visited those.

    Would You know of any web sites I could look at?

    I posted a message to You mentioning the Addresses the Power C PRG files use. Did You see that message?

    Admittedly, I'm not currently using Power C but am working on special support for it. I also want to create some libraries for it, and some
    of those functions are better off in Assembler.

    Howdy! Harry,

    Thanks for finding a URL I could get the POWER C Manual from.

    I noticed there were some Downloads in D64 format.

    I use a XP computer for the internet and could download those files and
    Save them on a 720KB disk and then use the MSDOS64 PRG and the 1581 drive
    to Save them to a 1541 disk with the C=64 PC.

    That PRG is slow and I wonder if You have a suggestion for another PRG
    I could download from the Zimmers Net website?



    Thanks Again and 73 de Ed W9ODR . .

    Good. :)

    Try the Zoomfloppy device. You should be able to find it using Google.
    :)

    Another person told me about the Zoomfloppy device and I did read some about
    it after that.
