IDading
RAID
The
disk
on
which
RAID
comes
contains
the
program
which
is
designed
to
be
used
in
56K
systans
only
whose
screen
rrerrory
is
located
at
add~ss
FOOOH.
To
load
RAID,
first
get
into
the
CP/M
cc:mmand
exealtive,
as
indicated
by
the
A>
pranpt.
Load
the
RAID
diskette
in
drive
A and
type:
!VRAIn
[<d:
filename.
filetype>
J
<REIURN>
The
filenane
is
cptional.,
If
typed,
it
can
include
a
drive
designator
and a
filetype
extension,
usin;
the
standard
CP/M
format.
I t
causes
the
selected
unambiguous
file
to
be
loaded
from
disk
into
memory.
IMPORTANT:
if
the
filetype
is
.HEX,
then
RAID
will
first
convert
the
file
into
bincu:y
format,
and
then
load
it
at
the
load
address
of
the
file
specified
when
the
file
was
asserbled.
'Ibis
enables
you
to
assemble
and
debug
programs
that
run
at
any
location,
rather
than
OlOOH
as
is
nonral
for
CP/M.
If
the
filetype
is
anything
else,
the
RAID
will
assune
the
file
is
already
in
bincu:y
fonnat
(having
passed
thrcugh
the
CP/M
LOAD
procedure)
am
will
load
it
at
OIOOH.
After
yen

Addresses
greater
than
the

are
not
re<:ClTlItended
because
this
walld
cause
RAID
to
overlay
CP
1M
,
which
is
not
normally
desired.
However,
ym
may
overlay
sate
or
all
of
CP/M
if
the
target
program
does
not
use
the
overlayed
part
of
CP/M.
It
is
not
recommended
to
use
the
lower
part
of
the
TPA
(Transient
Program
Area)
tecause
this
is
the
usual
area
for
the
target
pro;:J:tam.
With
the
exception
of
the
HELP
screen,
the
bulk
of
the
RAID pt:03ram
will
load
from
the
specified
load
address
upwards.
The
HELP
screen
occupies
approximately
1440
bytes
fran
the
load
address
downwards. Thus
the
simulated
prcg:tam
nay
overlay
the
help
area
in
nerory
and,
if
so,
the
help
screen
will
'not
be
displayed
when
the
help
camrand
is
input.
If
the
HELP
screen
data
has
been
disturbed
the
phrase
"HELP
SCREEN ID1' AVAIIABLE"
will
be
displayed
in
the
Rev.
