Debugging programs (assemby) is sooooo much easier under mp/m then cp/m! Wow. Text editor with source in window 1. Below it, TYPE displaying the listing in window 3. And SID (symbolic debugger) in 4.SID (and ZSID but I prefer Intel z80 mnemonics) is not bad at all. Debugging with a symbol table seems luxurious. One window unused. Problems: I need a LESS program to display the listing, TYPE is barbaric.

@brouhaha Lol yeah tdl/xitan I think came up with them. The z80 is as absurdly asymmetrical as the 8080, but the zilog opcodes imply otherwise. It's silly. Mainly I write 8080 code, out of old habit. Except for certain specialized functions like block IO from or to a port, or block moves or fills, the fact is the z80 isn't any faster then the 8080.
