SmartWRITER Revision 81 - Unreleased Prototype

There are five files contained in this archive. The five *.DAT files are the dumped eprom images that are useless to the average user in this state. The final file is a *.ROM file that can immediately be used by any ADAM Emulator such as ADAMem, Virtual ADAM or MESS. You will have to rename to WP.ROM and place in the ADAMem directory to use in ADAMem or Virtual ADAM. To use in M.E.S.S. you will have to place in the ADAM.ZIP BIOS file in the ROMS directory. Remember to rename the your existing WP.ROM file (which is Revision 80) so as not to overwrite it.

SmartWRITER R81 - (ALF81-1).DAT
SmartWRITER R81 - (ALF81-2).DAT

As far as we know, there are a couple new features in this revision including search having "Go To Top of Text" feature and "End of Page" command. Also the Print Option allows to Print from the cursor position to the end of document. There may be other changes and fixes that we don't know of yet. For further information on these chipsets, go to Joe Blenkle's ADAM Computer System Website at the following address and read Issue#96 March/April '94 of the N.I.A.D. Newsletter which is available in PDF format.

Many thanks go out to Doug Rosenvinge, who came across these eproms from a former Coleco employee and Jim Walters of Walters Software Co. for dumping the eproms and merging them into a useable ROM file.
