Comment: Correct OZvm and more text

...

As you are reading this on the internet, you already have one item, a computer that you can download the applications from. To demonstrate how to use this program, Ozvm OZvm the Z88 emulator is being used so that screen shots may be used. Using the emulator has other advantages, these are:-

  • Use the larger 1M RAM and 1M Flash cards to store and build applications (even though you may not have one for your Z88)
  • Importing and exporting files from the main computer to Ozvm OZvm directly.
  • Saving the state of the emulator at key points which can be returned to if a mistake is made.

Finally you need a link from your computer and the Z88, like Eazylink and a cable, so that your compilation can be used on a real Z88.

The other way of using this software is on your Z88 directly, but in both cases you still need the link.

This description is assuming that a Flash card is used for the compilation. Unless you just want to add an additional application, making a compilation needs a number of points to be considered. This requires planning and then execution. We will be using the Pareto principal (80% planning, 20% doing), so don't expect to be even looking at RomCombiner just yet.

...

The first items on the list are the existing Z88 applications. They have Application names and Key letters which need to be taken into consideration. An additional line is added at the top []I Index which although is not displayed on the Z88, the Key letter is used. The first column is a 'master order' column. You will see that we will need this to return our list back to where we started after the different checks we will be doing.
