Topic: SPM?

[Cnavarro]

My friend is looking for a copy of SPM, not WIN SPM.  I laughed at him, but he says he's trying to contol a Legend from DOS.  I think he's going to reverse engineer the command line interface to make it work.  He has a blank disk, but no program.  My oldest WIN SPM is like 5.0.  Anybody have one lying around on floppy disk?

The only person that I can think of that might still have a copy would be Jack Morgan.
Is there no way your friend can program with a windows based PC and use WINSPM?

It's not my choice and I dutifully laughed at him when he asked.  Fortunately, Touch Tone Tommy helped me out on another forum.  He has some sort of plan to run it in a multi-tasked DOS environment, so I just deliver and it's not my problem :-)

I contacted Jack the day this posted...and he doesn't have a copy for you.  There are tweaks in all versions of Windows that will "make this happen" and I suggest  you steer  your client in that direction.  WinSPM WILL work in a number of venues, including the latest MacIntosh GUI.  There's no reason to resort to such an old compilation unless your customer lives in a strictly DOS environment.

He does.  It's a reverse engineering task and, last thing I knew is he got it O.K. and was working on it.
