Hi,

I know that PCW and CPC both use CP/M+, but... are there any software that were marketed only for PCW that also work on CPC?

eg, does Masterfile 8000 work on both?

ComSoft6128

I can't comment on other CPM software but I think it likely that Masterfile 8000 would use the RAM drive (M) on the PCW, so that, and the different screen configurations, would rule it out.

AFAIK SuperCalc² works on both CPC and PCW via CPM

Schneider CPC 664 • X-MEM • Vortex F1-X Drive • CTM 644 • DMP 2160
Schneider CPC 6128 • Z-MEM • M4 Board • MultiPlay + Amiga Mouse • OSSC

Just the screen... would be an easy patch then. RAM drive C (or M) for CPC CP/M Plus is provided by Dobbertin expansions anyway.
