Hi Bert,

Thanks for the tip.  I didn't realize that I could do this.  I did try a 
command like

import ws33/ws.in .ini

and I got a rather bizarre CPM file name and no real content so I assumed it 
always went to the root.  Changing the directory with TS-DOS will be fine until 
import.com is updated, since I have it on the rex as well.

Not sure if I should patch wordstar to accept the M100 arrow keys or just wait 
for the next revision of CPM.  It's not like I have to write a lot in WS on the 
M100, it's just nice having things properly arranged.

I must say that despite the slower clock rate compared to my last CPM machine, 
this one boots a LOT faster and it is kind of weird having almost 4 meg on A:.

I Meant to expand on one more point: Your best bet at the moment is to
use TS-DOS or something like that to CD to the directory containing the
file you want to IMPORT or EXPORT, and then jump into CP/M to actually
do the file operation.  This works with the NADSBox, and I assume it
works with other TPDD emulators.

IMPORT and EXPORT currently do not handle moving around in
subdirectories, as Philip has already mentioned. :-)

Hope that helps

Cheers,     Bert
