/1000<CP/M SECRTARY WORD PROCESSOR DIFFERENCES
1020 
H1040[The following differences occur between the North Star version of
J1060SECRTARY and the CP/M version of SECRTARY.  CP/M is the trademark of
E1080Digital Research.  SECRTARY is not a Digital Research product.]
1100 
K11201) To execute under CP/M, enter SECRTARY, not GO SECRTARY as required
1140   for North Star DOS.
1160 
E11802) The CONFIGURE question about disk density will not be asked.
1200 
I12203) The amount of memory will be determined by CP/M so that question
1240   will not be asked.
1260 
M12804) CP/M SECRTARY does not have automatic self-saving capability.  After
K1300   you have run the CONFIGURE command or respond "Y" to the configure
L1320   question, SECRTARY will not save a copy of itself on disk.  To save
L1340   a copy with all the specific options determined in CONFIGURE, enter
<1360   QUIT to return to CP/M, then enter the CP/M command
#1380         SAVE 40 SECRTARY.COM
1400 
L14205) The CALL and EXPAND commands have not been implemented.  EXPAND was
;1440   not needed since the CP/M version is much smaller.
1460 
1480 
L1500   Because CP/M users may be familiar with terms that North Star users
K1520   would not be familiar with, and some common North Star terms would
F1540   be unfamiliar to CP/M users, a few commands have been changed
1560   slightly.
1580 
1600 
G16206) The UNIT command has been changed to DEVICE.  The parameter is
B1640   either L for the list device or C for the console device.
1660   EXAMPLE:  DEVICE L
1680             DEVICE C
1700 
A17207) To delete a file from the disk, you can enter DESTROY as
11740   documented, or ERA as you do under CP/M.
1760 
C17808) To list the disk directory, enter only the three character
H1800   DIR as you do under CP/M.  With no parameters, it will list the
?1820   default disk device.  Otherwise enter the disk letter.
1840   EXAMPLE:   DIR B:
1860  
J18809) To allow the use of ERA and DIR, all of the commands require only
H1900   three characters instead of the four as documented earlier.  To
I1920   avoid confusion between CHAin and CHAll (change all), the change
.1940   all command has been changed to CHLL.
1960\
C198010) The file naming conventions are same as used with CP/M ie
12000      disk letter : 8 char name . file type
;2020    The file type will default to TXT if not entered.
!2040   EXAMPLE: LOAD B:DEMOFILE
#2060            SAVE SAMPLTTR.TXT
&2080            BSAVE C:BASICPGM.BAS
2100  
I212011) The NSAVE and SAVE commands do the exact same function.  If the
G2140   file already exists, it will be renamed with the file type BAK
J2160   for backup.  If a backup file already exists, this earlier backup
I2180   will be deleted.  Then the file will be copied to disk under the
52200   name entered.  The default type will be TXT.
#2220   EXAMPLE: SAVE B:SAMPLE.TXT
2240 
G226012) BLOAD takes a file in CP/M standard format and converts it it
G2280   SECRTARY format; (optional line number) text, carriage return,
H2300   line feed to character count, four character ASCII line number,
E2320   text, carriage return.  The program will ask if the optional
F2340   line number already exists in the source program.  If it does
@2360   exist, enter "Y" so SECRTARY will not generate new line
E2380   numbers, otherwise enter "N".  The line numbers must be four
*2400   characters between 0000 and 9999.
2420 
F244013) BSAVE converts a SECRTARY file to standard CP/M format.  The
G2460   program will ask if you want the line numbers retained.  Enter
G2480   "Y" if you want them retained or "N" if you want them stripped
-2500   off the record before it is written.
2520 
I254014) If you exit to CP/M and want to return to SECRTARY and continue
D2560   working with the existing file in memory, use the following
G2580   restart procedure.  Theis may happen if you wanted to rename a
H2600   file, for instance.  Enter QUIT to leave SECRTARY and return to
C2620   CP/M, enter REN or any other command, then enter the dummy
E2640   command RESTART.  This will return you to SECRTARY, but will
G2660   initialize the data area.  To restore the data area, enter the
I2680   command RECOVER.  If you use a command that destroys part of the
I2700   TPA such as STAT, this may not work.  If only part of the TPA is
F2720   destroyed, enter SECRTARY to CP/M to bring in a fresh copy of
J2740   SECRTARY, then try entering RECOVER to salvage the file in memory
(2760   if it has not been overwritten.
2780 
M280015) SECRTARY does not use the CP/M read buffer routine, but does direct
H2820   I/O from the console to properly implement EDIT, control-C etc.
K2840   Consequently, the backspace character must be defined to SECRTARY,
M2860   control-C returns to SECRTARY not CP/M, and other control characters
A2880   such as control-P do not function as they do under CP/M.
2900 
M292016) The MERGE command is under development and has not been implemented
D2940   with release 9.4.  It will be available in the near future.

&3020FOR CP/M VERSION, USE DEVICE L/C
H3030    Do not use the UNIT command with the CP/M version of SECRTARY.
I3040    Use the DEVICE command with L for the list device and C for the
3050    console device.
