I am not sure but I don't think that the Z-100 library is online yet.
I am not sure, but I think that is what Gern said.
     I was looking for the directory also.
     Recently, I downloaded a file from a local BBS.  It's name was
TDRAW222.ARC. It is an ANSI graphics program.  You can create ansi
graphics and even animate them.  It is an IBM program, but I thought,"hm
What about running it under ZPC".  I try it and the program ran
perfectly.  I had not even read the DOCS(on board help) and created a
crude ansi graphic in about 10 minutes.
     The program is called "The Draw".  To run it you need the ANSI
graphics driver for the Z-100, which can be obtained on the Black Cat
BBS.  In the docs it says that the graphic pictures can be used with
Basic, Turbo Pascal, C, and some others.  There are a couple of demo
graphic pictures that come with it.
     I have also found two other Public Domain programs that run under
ZPC.  They are CASTLE.ARC, an adventure game where you have to find the
treasure.  This program has good graphics and can take a long time to
solve, which I have yet to do.
     The other is MONOP67.ARC.  This is a very very good presentation
of the board game.  It runs a little slow but it works.
     There are various other games that will run, too.  Try it and add
it to the list.  Does anyone else have any other PD programs that run
under ZPC???  I would like to know......    Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
