I hope a question about DR-DOS' predecessor is not too
"out of place" here ... ?   <g>.

Anyway, I have read information about CP/M 1.4 and
2.2 (or was that 2.0?) that said the command processor
(CCP) occupies 2K of memory ...

Now, my question is this : Were there any versions of
CP/M (or CP/M clones), in which the command processor
(CCP) was larger than 2K?

BTW, the recent question about "total memory" is what
has reminded me to ask about this, because, as far as
I can tell, the only way to work out how much memory is
available/free on a CP/M system, is to subtract the CCP
size from the BDOS starting address ...

Joe.
