        Sorry about that but my T100 made the "forced line breaks" I don't know
why or how but it did. Also while uploading MENU02 I watched as the breaks were
being created, I set my screen length on your BBS at 40, could this be my 
problem? If not what could I have done other than what your last message said,
because there were no "line breaks" in it when I scaned it before I logged on.
That is to say that the only <CR>'s were at the end of the lines.
        
        On a different note just a few questions on the computer known as the
"KAYPRO 10".
        Have you (or any of your computerized friends) heared of it? Or
Non-Linear Systems, the old mother company of Kaypro.
        Or what about CP/M operating systems, that is the operating system on
the Kaypro 10.
    If so, do you know where I could find a boot-up disk(s) for CP/M? If you
have one(them) I would gladly work out any payment you deem for its value and
shipment. I can pick it up as long as that is OK with you.
        Last but not least, how about the software and documentatio n (I hope I
spelled that right) for it.
        
        As for what I know about it, Kaypro went out of busness 5 to 10 years
ago and acording to NLS, they have "...Not a damb  thing on file for the
Kaypro....the last of the stock was sold and that that wasn't sold was thrown
away". I call that verry displeasing news to say the least.
        
        I do hope that you or anybody else has better news than that but if all
else fails I have another option. I hope that Egghead software was right and I
can boot the Kaypro 10 with DOS (and loose all programing that might still be
in there) and start from there.
        Last question. Do you know if I could boot-up dos on a computer
originaly booted with cp/m? And what are there differences (dos and cp/m).
        
        
        Thank you for your time and any effort you may expend on my account
