Please do everything you  can to encourage others to be a part of that support. In that way, things can only get better!.Thank you!.                              2.A FEW SIMPLE RULES TO FOLLOW!.In order to create an atmosphere of trust and integrity, for those people and organizations that are providing the subject material, from which     these ADAM News Network disks are created, it is  by a few      individuals.In the past, except for a few financial subscriptions, the provision of   articles etc., to A.N.N., was considered sufficient contribution to the   organization, to assure that you, and/or your group would continue to     receive the regular monthly output from A.N.N.. In order for the service  to operate in that environment, it was economically essential that the    collection, selection, collation, reproduction  and distribution, of the  wealth of ADAM material available, be u      legitimate, non-profit, ADAM oriented organization, is not only           permitted, but encouraged.2. It is also essential that due credit be given to the author, the       originating organization, and the ADAM News Network, when reproducing any article or item from these disks. Such credits should, wherever possible, form part of a preamble immediately preceding the reproduced item, or as  a footnote to the item. A general credit, in the form of a notice         appearing elsewhere within the bodared among those who benefit most from the service, namely the ADAM world at   large. But, subscribing in monetary form  alone will not be sufficient to assure the continuance of the service. In order for that to be assured,   A.N.N. will continue to need your input, in the form of articles,         programs, comments, reviews and etc., so that these can be redistributed  to other interested groups and individual parties. As evidenced by the enthusiasm with which this ADAM News Network          initiative ADAM User's   Group, (SLAUG). Barry who is a practising attorney, was so enthusiastic   about the possibilities of this network, that he devoted a considerable   part of his personal time and financial resources to the concept. The result, as you can readily see if you have been exposed to the end    product, "ADAM news available on a grand scale", has been a complete      success. But this success has, of itself, created the present situation,  whereby the financial load has become too great to be borneessential that the       following simple rules be meticulously applied:1. Although the individual item or article published through the medium   of the A.N.N disks may not be copyrighted, THE ANN DISKS ARE!. They       cannot be copied or redistributed as an entity, except with the express   permission of the Editor, Barry Wilson. However, as is the purpose of the service, the print-reproduction of any or all of the uncopyrighted        articles contained in those disks, in any suitable form, by any     ndertaken by a few ADAM users.     Mostly at their own expense! This resulted in considerable out-of-pocket  expense for a few, and in particular the founder, Barry Wilson. And, in   addition to the self-evident monetary outlays, were the insidious costs   of wear and tear on disk drives etc.Such a situation cannot, in all conscience, be continued. It is time for  the ADAM world to rally round Barry Wilson's brain-child and make it a    permanent, viable entity in that world. Responsibility must now be shy of a publication, will not be         considered sufficient to satisfy these requirements.3. Except as specifically authorized by the network, any use of the       material contained on the A.N.N. disks, by groups or persons involved in  a commercial enterprise, is prohibited. NOTE. Copyrighted material should not be submitted for distribution by    the ADAM News Network, since the purpose of the organization, is simply   to redistribute articles for reproduction by individuals or groups, on a  non-pr 6l32 Sandcrest Cir.

printing costs to print a book  similar to the one that     came with
CP/M 2.2. Also, in talking to Pat Herrington of the Metro   Orlando
Adam Users Group in Florida, slightly before Adamcon-1,     she also
expressed an  interest in finding a way to distribute TDOS  to all
people so it would run  on  all systems.  The initial       problem was
that when TDOS is installed into a specific system, it      will only
work  on  that  system.is to state the      reason why
we need a  Generic  TDOS.  Since  TDOS  can  replace  CP/M  as an
alternate  operating  system  for  the  ADAM,  and  since   it  is
available for  downloading  or  from user groups (or from   myself)
free of charge, the case  presents  itself as to which      version of
TDOS would be handed out. For those who have purchased the  Micro-
Innovation products, either the Powermate  Hard  Drive      system or
the MIB2  Dual Serial/Parallel interface board, those come  withuld solve the   problem
for very basic ADAM owners.  Those  of  us left who only    have the
original system plus a second DDP. (Yes..there are quite a  few of
them out there). The second system was one that had a       single disk
drive of the original Coleco 160K  type,  and  at  least    one DDP
(which  all  ADAMs  had).  I  also  decided  to  fit  the   entire
installation onto  a  single  media,  since the             documentation was
required  to  first   install   TDOS   for   the  person`s   drives,  available  in all different ports.    Well..
that leads to a plethora of TDOSi(?) floating around..all   to help
you, the end user.  But, which version should be handed out as a
starter system to take off from?
     This idea came  to  me  after  talking  to Tony        Morehen (the
designer of TDOS along with Guy Cousineau) about  how  TDOS could
replace the CP/M system disk that Coleco had been selling   as CP/M
2.2 & Assembler.  He had also been wondering how to         distribute it
coClub Forum      and Uploaded to Pat Herrington for publication in      MOAUG        Generic you say?  Well  why?  Isn`t  TDOS  the new     Operating System that all Adam owners  are  talking  about?  Isn`t    it that system that  lets  you  use  CP/M software, but is easier   to use? Isn`t  it  usually  installed   to  your  specific  system  after downloading the files under CP/M?? What if you don`t have   CP/M at
all? How can you install it then?? Ah Ha!!!
     The point of this little opening  .  with  those  number  of  drives,  ports,
devices, etc.  Not everyone has a parallel  printer  or     even any
add-ons to  a basic ADAM at all.  Yet..they should be able  to run
TDOS.
     I decided to put together  a  version of TDOS that     could run
on any ADAM..whether it had add-ons or not.  What I like    to call
an LCD system - Least Common Denominator. The most basic    system I
came up  with  ended up being two.  One being a double DDP  system
(that could work with only one DDP). This wo a
version of  TDOS  tailored  for  those  system.             Alternatly,  the
version of TDOS that can work with the Mini-Winnie/CLD Hard Drive
interface  came  with  that  system.  On  various  BBS`s    and  on
CompuServe are  versions  of  TDOS  that can work with      either the
Mini-Winnie system and the MIB2  ports, or the Mini-Winnie  system
and the Eve/OBS Serial ports.  Besides, there  are          versions that
will work  80  column units only, and versions designed for large
(40meg) hardfinal
configuration, and making backups might be available at     first. It
would be easier after the person became  more  familar      with TDOS
and how it works. Also, the reason for wanting to fit it    all on a
single media  would  be that the end user, while having the files
on one disk and the  documentation  on the other, might     only have
one drive (of either type, 160K disk or DDP).
     Ok. Now that I had  decided  on the set-up.. what to   include
or not include.  Well, since the goal whe  beauty  of  TDOS  is  it's  ability  to   be re-
installed.  That way, whoever has what accessory can use    TDOS and
later set it up for their  own.  If  they  purchase  an     accessory
that comes with TDOS (such as the Micro Innovation          products) they
will be well adapted to use it.
     For those who want more, I combined the TDOS.GIV with  a set-
up I  called  MODEM.GIV  which  included  all  the internal modem
programs that are used under CP/M and TDOS (and  weren't    included
wits
called EXL, and it's one big feature was the ability  to    print a
compressed text  file  directly to the printer without      going thru
the intermediate step of  extracting  first.  Since the     disks had
no more room, this was crucial.
     Once last step was  needed  to  complete  this offer   to all.
For those who never had CP/M, I needed a way to teach them  how to
extract files and use the extraction files as well  as  the built
in commands.  Also, I wanted them to read the introduction  rs  of  new  software  is they never    read the
docs.  I've also not said how to stop the auto-run  of      that text
file, and haven't said so here either.  To find out how,    the user
must  read  the  file  and  follow  the  directions.  (I'm  asking
whoever prints this not to  reveal  how  to  stop  the      auto-run).
Again, I  made this set-up as a generic file.  I think we   need it
so all non-CP/M users can  learn  to  use TDOS without      having the
catch-22  problem.  Meaning,   needing  or mass-distribution would  be  low,  and all would   get the
same program.
     I was hoping that user  groups  would accept it as a   generic
version of TDOS and further help distribute it,  and        indeed some
have.  I have  heard of others offering to pre-install a    version,
but after using CP/M  on  my  ADAM  for approximately  6    years, I
have found that the best way to learn was to actually do    all the
work on installing and using the program.  This file is a   generic
program and  tas a basic  system   and 80
column units  came  with  TDOS,  I  only  included  the 40  column
version that could be used on  TVs and color monitors. I    made the
format ready-to-run so the user could prepare disks/DDPs    for more
files.  I  re-compressed  the  utilities  and  the          documentation
tighter than originally done using a program called CRLZH.  I was
left with  files  and  docs  plus the extraction files that fit a
single 145K disk.  Voila!  The program I  used to extract   them ih Coleco's  CP/M  2.2),  as well as a lot of useful      utilities.
     Well, it seems to  have  worked  well,  though it had  a slow
start.  Yes, a lot of experienced CP/M users  have          absolutely no
use for  a  program  set  up  this  way,  but  it wasn't    made for
experienced users.  It was made  as  a  free replacement    for CP/M
2.2, since original Coleco CP/M is  getting  scarce  and    hard to
come by.  It  was  made to auto-run the readme.1st file     since the
one problem with usefiles.
I made a file that would be displayed upon booting and      force them
to read the intro file.  In the intro, I said how to        extract, and
what was on the disk.  It's actually called -README.1ST,    but it's
also  been  uploaded  to  CompuServe  and  printed  in      MOAUG  as
TDOS.GIV.  The .GIV  stands  for  GIVaway.  The  best       method for
distribution was to simply offer it  to  anyone  free  of   charge.
(As stated  in the afore mentioned TDOS.GIV file).  That    way, the
cost f CP/M   to   get  a CP/M
replacement.  I hope  all  those  who  want  to  learn      TDOS will
benefit.  Enjoy it and have fun.
