Visit Monitor II V1.0
By Bryan Smart

From Warp Zero (September, 1993)

This isn't supposed to be a revolution in software.  Visit Monitor II is the
replacement for the standard Visit Monitor CDA in the system ROM.  I decided to
put this out because I was sick and tired of using the Visit Monitor CDA in
GS/OS, and always ending up wasting my system.

This program is not a new monitor.  The program installs an item in the CDA
menu, which when picked, jumps to a routine in VM II.  This routine performs
some housekeeping functions, and then launches the ROM monitor.

You don't have to worry about changing active banks, aultering registers
critical to the program while disassembling memory, and other Misc. problems
which have annoyed people for years.

To quit VM II, type "Q" or CTRL-Y, and you'll be returned to the CDA menu.

Installation
------------

Sorry, but something like this won't install easily under GS/OS.  I've tried
PIFs and CDAs, but it just isn't working.  Currently, you can launch the file
VM2 from the Finder or anyother launcher.  The program is a p8 application
which does nothing except install the CDA and patches, and quit back to your
selector.


Got any suggestions/comments?  Feel free to give me a buzz or disk in the mail.
